After tough games in the second games of their seasons to Friendswood and Klein Collins, the Summer Creek Bulldogs and Atascocita Eagles both saw their football teams get back in the win column this past week.

The Small Business Administration (SBA), in conjuction with FEMA, has opened a disaster recovery center at the Senior Citizen's Activity Center at 1401 S. Houston Ave. in Humble. SBA loan counselors are able to speak face to face with loan applicants to help them apply for SBA assistance.

This past week, the 2017 Texas high school football season for the area’s schools got underway.
And for several of the area schools, there were some really good starts.

The Humble City Council held back-to-back hearings last week on a proposed 2017 average property tax increase of about 7.4 percent for an average property in Humble and for its proposed budget for 2018. The hearings were immediately followed by a council meeting where the proposed budget was approved.

In the wake of Hurricane Harvey and the subsequent devastating floodwaters, two local high schools have merged to form two schools sharing a single physical campus. That is, the students of Kingwood High School (KHS) entered the 2017-2018 school year at Summer Creek High School (SCHS) in Atascocita.

At the September board meeting, Humble ISD trustees found themselves in the middle of the second week of a long and painful recovery from the most damaging hurricane to hit the Houston Gulf Coast area since the great Galveston hurricane of 1900. Hurricane Harvey flooded much of the community, resulting in severe damage to two district facilities. Kingwood High School is closed for up to a year and the Eggers Instructional Support Center for months.
