Splendora’s vision is to ensure that when their students graduate, they are “self motivated, confident, an adaptable learner, a critical thinker, and a productive citizen.”

Extracurricular Activities and Programs

One of the ways Splendora challenges and places confidence in their students is through extracurricular activities and programs. Extracurricular Activities and programs challenges students inside and outside the classroom, and help students explore their interest, hone their skills, and challenge their intellect.

Some activities strengthen students’ athletic skills such as soccer, football, basketball, and baseball. Others explore students’ creative skills like culinary arts, theatre arts, and choir. Then there are those that challenge their leadership skills like AFJROTC, National Honor Society, and the school newspaper and year book. These are just a few of the extracurricular activities and programs that Splendora ISD currently offers.
