About RIO HONDO ISD

Description provided by the district or community — not part of the NCES dataset.

Rio Hondo is located 8 miles northeast of Harlingen on Texas Highway 106. Its historic bridge spans the Arroyo Colorado, an arm of the Rio Grande River. Formed in 1911, the Rio Hondo Independent School District is nestled in the productive agricultural region of North Central Cameron County in the Rio Grande Valley and encompasses an area of 94 square miles. Traditionally, the Elementary, Intermediate, Junior High, and High School campuses have been an excellent community resource in preparing the area’s children for productive, successful lives. The mission of the District is to enable all students to become intellectually and morally competent, productive and socially responsible members of their homes and community by providing quality educational programming by a highly dedicated, qualified staff who respects cultural differences; the mission is further supported by encouraging parental involvement and by providing educational opportunities for the adult community.
