I am glad you are visiting our website.  Students from Furr, Heights, Houston, Kashmere, North Forest, Northside, Washington, Wheatley, and Yates are eligible to take classes at the career center beginning their 9th grade year in 2025-26.  Students remain enrolled at their home campus while taking classes here for half the day.  Transportation is provided.  

As Houston ISD’s only Career Center, our goal is to ensure all students build on the traditional high school requirements with real world applications in their chosen career strand.  Our students can begin their post-secondary education and/or career fields with rigorous core content and opportunities to earn college credits and/or certifications.  Please download our flyer or watch our videos to learn more about our pathways.

Our pioneer, Ms. Barbara Jordan, raised the bar for all that follow to define their destiny.  It is her founded passion for knowledge, strength to challenge self, and integrity to stand for justice that characterizes the culture of the Barbara Jordan Career Center.

We strive for Excellence, as it is an Honor to be Team Jordan.
