About
The Difference Defined
The Emery Difference
It's one of the most frequently repeated phrases that describes our school community. More than just a marketing tagline, it is a statement of who we are, what we believe and why we are unique among Houston-area schools. So what is The Emery Difference?
Our Mission
"To educate and develop students whose intellect, moral character, and Jewish identity provide a lifelong foundation for personal growth, commitment to the Jewish people and Tikkun Olam—improving the world in which we live.”
About The Emery/Weiner School
The Emery/Weiner School is an independent, college-prep middle and high school where academic excellence thrives in a supportive, pluralistic Jewish community. Our inclusive culture celebrates diversity and inspires students to explore wide-ranging academic, athletic, and artistic interests while developing confidence, character, and a strong sense of belonging. Small classes and outstanding teachers nurture both competence and self-advocacy, so graduates leave Emery empowered to lead with integrity and purpose.

The Shuk: A Committee on Inclusion & Community
Because Here, No One is a Stranger
About The Shuk
The Shuk is a crowded and vibrant marketplace where people bring fresh produce, spices, and goods – it’s also a place where diverse humans come together. It’s a social hub where people come to connect, discuss, and share.
At EWS, the Shuk’s charge is to support and celebrate the diversity of people by facilitating cultural programming that will contribute to the communal growth at Emery/Weiner as we strive to be ever more aware of the challenges and the gifts of diversity.
Emery strives to honor the diverse backgrounds of all members of our community by creating a safe and supportive environment where individuals from differing backgrounds, abilities, and beliefs can participate fully in the life of our school. Exploring, celebrating, and honoring differences are integral to our mission as a modern, pluralistic Jewish institution.
We believe that our community is best served when we place Kvod HaBriot or human dignity at the center of everything we do — the dialectic that comes with diversity is essential to our mission. We are committed to an ongoing process of honest self-reflection on the nature of our environment in order to ensure a sense of genuine inclusion for all.
