Dear Florence High School Parents and Students,

On behalf of our faculty and staff, I would like to welcome you to the 2026–2027 school year.

At Florence High School, we are committed to preparing students for success after high school. We provide students with an outstanding educational experience that includes opportunities to earn three different associate degrees, take Advanced Placement courses, and enroll in classes that prepare them for the real world, such as Financial Math. Students also have the opportunity to complete up to one associate degree, eight Programs of Study, and two certificate programs, equipping them with industry-recognized credentials and preparing them for the workforce or continued postsecondary education.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Florence High School has been awarded an "A" accountability rating by the Texas Education Agency for the 2025-2026 School Year!

This rating is a true reflection of the dedication, resilience, and hard work of our students, the unwavering commitment of our educators and staff, and the incredible support of our Florence community. This is the highest rating FHS has received since TEA began measuring A-F campus accountability ratings!

As a graduate of Florence High School, I am honored to partner with our parents and community as we support and serve the students of FHS. Together, we can help every student reach their full potential.

I encourage you to read our weekly campus newsletter, visit our campus, and see firsthand all of the great things happening at FHS. I look forward to another outstanding year. If I can ever be of assistance to you, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Sincerely,

Dr. Russell Porterfield
Principal, Florence High School
