Tuition-Based Enrollment (TBE) is open to students who reside outside of HSPS but within the boundaries of the Char-Em ISD. There is a tuition fee charged on an annual basis ($5,000 for the 2024-25 school year). A Tuition Agreement Form must be completed and submitted by August 1. Tuition-Based Agreements are valid for one school year and subject to renewal each year. Students must meet the terms of the agreement to be eligible and remain eligible for TBE.
