If you live in the Kingwood, Humble or Atascocita area and are reading this and you have kids, chances are pretty likely that your kids belong to the Humble Independent School District (yes, we know some in Kingwood end up in New Caney but thats a discussion for another time).   Do you want to have a say in things that affect your child's education? Have you ever voted in a School Board Election? Why not? 

Humble ISD will have a School Board Election on Saturday, May 1. Early voting begins Monday, April 19. School board members are volunteers, who serve without pay, and are elected for four-year terms. This year, there are four positions scheduled for election on the seven-member board. So many of us vote year after year in state, local and national elections in an effort to have a say in thing that affect our lives directly and peripherally, but often forget to vote in the smaller elections for those people who's words and actions can have a direct impact upon the lives of our children, the school boards.
