You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

Facilities include art, science, and computer labs, a proscenium theater, art and music studios, a multi-court gymnasium, library, football stadium and turf field, weight room, audio/visual room, a student center/cafeteria and a new makerspace known as the Levine Innovation Lab.

Roselyn Bell, author of the "Houston" entry in ''The Jewish Traveler: Hadassah Magazine's Guide to the World's Jewish Communities and Sights'', wrote around 1987 that the school, then the I. Weiner Jewish Secondary School, had a "centrist" viewpoint in regard to the Jewish religious movements.<ref name=Bellp218>Bell, p.

[[File:GrossESHouston.JPG|thumb|Jenard M. Gross Elementary School (formerly the I. Weiner Jewish Secondary School)]]
((More citations needed section|date=August 2009))
The I. Weiner Jewish Secondary School opened in 1978.

It became a member of the HISD family in 2000, when the district purchased it, renovated it, and renamed it for local philanthropist Jenard M. Gross. Gross was a real-estate developer committed to the preservation and improvement of urban school systems.

The first students graduated from Emery/Weiner in 2005. In 2008, EWS embarked on a 10.5 million dollar "Expanding Horizons" campaign to expand its facilities and endowment.  The expansion included a new Upper School wing, athletics pavilion, and fine arts complex.<ref>http://www.emeryweiner.org/cmtpages.php?link_id=386&file_name=expandinghorizons&preview=A</ref> The school houses a 500-seat theater-style auditorium, two gymnasiums, and a computer center.<ref name="Stanton"/>

Mottos from the school have included ''Connecting with the Past, Preparing for the Future'' (2000-2010) (2011–Present), "A Decade of Difference" (2010-2011), and "Experience the Difference..." (2011–present).
The Emery-Weiner school hosts clubs and after-school programs, including ''Tikkun Olam'' and after-school tutoring.

Emery/Weiner school also offers sports including lacrosse, football, baseball, cross country, volleyball, track, tennis, and golf. The tennis team has won a handful of state titles, competing in the boys and girls state championship tournament almost every year. The Football team won its first TAAPS state championship in 2015, while the baseball team won its first state championship in 2017.

==Experiential education==

Middle schoolers at Emery attend a few weekend-long campsite trips devoted to the building of camaraderie between peers. Aside from that, 6th graders take a local camping trip. 7th graders travel to Galveston, Texas, learning about the ecosystem as well as immigration through Galveston Bay. The 8th class embark on a trip to Washington, D.C., learning about the history of the United States as well as the U.S. government.

Emery High School has three main periods of experiential education. The first are weekend trips to campsites within the first month of school. In the winter, each grade takes another trip to a campsite, focusing on exploration and team-building. Freshman travel to Big Bend National Park, and hike 7,825 feet to the summit of Emery Peak. Seniors, during this time, begin "comparative religions week," where they travel the city deepening their understanding of religions other than Judaism. The third period of experiential education is spring trips. Freshmen take a trip throughout the deep south, focusing their learning on the Civil Rights Movement in America. Sophomores travel to San Francisco, with a focus on innovation and inclusion. Juniors travel to New York City, taking in all the complexities of the largest city in the U.S. During spring trips, seniors go through "Internship week," where each senior is required to find an internship.
