Port Houston was constructed in 1909, Furr was built in 1961, and Holland was built in 1979. At one time Port Houston Elementary School had an international shipping magnet program.

In 2014 HISD proposed closing Port Houston Elementary. In response, several members of the community argued against closing the school. The plans call for Port Houston to be combined with Pleasantville Elementary. Opposition argued that the walk to Pleasantville would be unsafe, that closing the school would harm the community, and that the school in 2013 had distinguished scores in mathematics and reading in state tests. Later in 2014, HISD announced that Port Houston will stay open.
