David Carpenter

Superintendent of Schools




The Houston County Board of Education welcomes you to middle Georgia and specifically to Houston County. Our school system provides educational services for approximately 26,300 students on 37 campuses that are conducive to quality learning.

Many of our schools and employees have obtained state and national recognition for outstanding achievements. Our students excel in many areas, outperforming state and national test averages, winning academic competitions and earning sports championships. We continually strive to improve and work to take our system to even greater heights.

Our mission is to produce high-achieving students, and our vision is that our school system will be world-class. Our values are:

  • Safety is our number one priority.
  • Failure is not an option. We do expect that all children can learn.
  • We will not be satisfied until all of our schools meet or exceed the highest academic standards.
  • We are committed to determining what each child needs to fulfill his or her potential.
  • We take responsibility for learning, not only for our students but also for ourselves.
  • We are not afraid of change and will embrace change that is research-based and proven to be effective.

We welcome you and your family to Houston County and look forward to meeting you and your students. If you need any assistance, please feel free to call on the Houston County Board of Education.

Sincerely,

David Carpenter
Superintendent of Schools
