John B Alexander High School

Our Mission

The mission of the John B. Alexander Magnet for Health and Science is to provide a challenging, well-balanced, college-preparatory program that focuses on educational experiences in the health science professions.

Our Expectations

All students will consistently demonstrate competency through a body of work in five major areas that support the accomplishment of the school’s mission and that are aligned with national, state, and local standards.

• Students will demonstrate mastery of academic competencies throughout the curriculum and extended learning opportunities.
• Students will collect, organize, analyze, and assess information and strategies to create, apply, explain, and evaluate solutions.
• Students will communicate effectively through listening and speaking, reading and writing, and media.
• Students will demonstrate respect and responsibility while managing personal time, conduct, and planning.
• Students will work effectively with others and strengthen group performance by sharing ideas and workloads.

These over-arching expectations encompass developmentally appropriate academic, civic, and social outcomes and identify what a United ISD student will know and be able to do upon graduation.

Our Goal

• To provide advanced academic preparation for college-bound students
• To create an awareness of the skills necessary for the development of successful future leaders in the areas of health and science
