The school received its operating charter in 1995. It was one of the first 19 charter schools to ever open in the State of Texas.〔Knight, Paul.

In 1996, the school opened in a three story office building. Soon after the opening, the school administrators learned that they needed to spend $30,000 so the building was in compliance with City of Houston fire codes. In 1997 the school had about 350 students in grades 6 through 12. Most of them were African American. During that year the school offered Arabic, French, Spanish, and Swahili.〔Markley, Melanie.
