LAST YEAR, IT WAS LUTHERAN HIGH NORTH’S TURN TO STAND ATOP THE PODIUM AND LIFT THE TROPHY.

Welcome to the 2021 Texas High School Football season!!

HOUSTON – When public schools kept students online with abrupt, unscheduled closures, many private schools were able to keep classes more stable. Bellaire mother of two Charity Zemzous heard how private school Lutheran High North handled the pandemic and school in general. “Probably every private school would say that this has been a nice boon for them,” said Lutheran High North principal Dana Gerard. Gerard has seen enrollment increase and decline in his 37 years at LHN, but he said the pandemic caused families who had never before considered private school to take a look. Private school for low-income familiesCristo Rey Jesuit College Preparatory School, located by Hobby Airport, is a private, Catholic school (accepting all faiths) that exclusively educates students from low-income families.

The Private School landscape in the city of Houston is healthy. Between the Southwest Preparatory Conference and the TAPPS big and small schools, the Bayou City has some legit contenders to bring home titles.

Geneva School of Boerne, located right off IH-10 in south Boerne, first opened its doors in Fall of 2007; however, the athletics program did not start until the following school year. Geneva's first Football team in 2008 Photo by Libby LunsfordThe quick rise Geneva has accomplished has been impressive to watch. Geneva football, who in just recent years switched to 11-man, faced Division 1/6A Central Catholic last Friday night, and went tooth and nail during the game. The Football team already proved to be competitive after Friday night's game against San Antonio Central Catholic. This quick rise, Boerboom said, can likely be attributed to the proper processes that have been put in place.
