Hello, Pioneer Family! 

I am thrilled to be your Principal, and it has been so much fun to see our very first students walk the halls of Iowa Colony High School to blaze a trail into the future. Opening a new high school is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for our kids, our staff, our community, and ourselves, and we are so grateful for the amazing start we've had. 

Before opening, we spent a significant amount of time selecting exactly the right resources, furniture, and materials to support the engaging learning experience we want for our students. Our kids have the best opportunities to grow their minds and explore a wide variety of academic, elective, and career courses during their time at Iowa Colony. Our programming is second to none, and there is a place for every Pioneer to feel included and celebrated at Iowa Colony. 

At Iowa Colony HS, we will work to instill our core values in our students, and we will teach them to:

Persist

Innovate

Open minds

Navigate change 

Elevate expectations

Embrace diversity

Respect all

Serve the community

We look forward to partnering with our community to create a stellar high school experience for our kids as we build Pioneer Pride from the ground up! If I can help you in any way, please contact me at amarquez@alvinisd.net.
