History
On September 14, 1927, the Houston Public School Board agreed to fund the development of two junior colleges: one for whites and one for African-Americans. And so, with a loan from the Houston Public School Board of $2,800, the Colored Junior College was born in the summer of 1927 under the supervision of the Houston School District.

My School Experience
My study experience was really good because we learn general business topics, we didn't focused on a specific knowledge, so we can develop and search which specific topics you'll like and worked after. Moreover, the school didn't overwhelmed the student with massive charge of homework, many teachers are professionals and or foreigner. Finally, the students life are good with many of events organize by the students association.
