The winning school was chosen by the public through Facebook and text message voting. This is the second consecutive year that Humble High has been the winning school for this Remington campus.
The staff at Humble High has requested classroom supplies (more than 3,000 each of pencils, pens and highlighters) and newspaper and magazine subscriptions for the library (Houston Chronicle, USA Today, Car & Driver, Time, Newsweek, Texas Monthly, Ebony, Redbook, Teen Vogue and several others).
