They are able to attend the schools that best challenge their academic needs and allow them to study things that inspire and motivate them.” Senior Garland High School “Garland ISD's Choice of School has been a blessing for the enrichment of my educational experience because I’m able to take hold of my future. Unlike charter schools, our seven high schools offer diverse programs, so I can tailor my educational experience in a way that complements my interests.” Lower Elementary Guide Herfurth Elementary School “The main benefit of Choice of School in Garland ISD is that it allows me to serve bilingual students from three different cities and offer them two great opportunities—a dual-language program in a Montessori setting. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our children.” Owner Bickerstaff Insurance and Financial Services, LLC “It gave our family the freedom to decide the best path for each of our three children. Every child has a unique set of abilities, and it is important to give them the best opportunities to succeed. GISD does just that.” Director of Budget & Position Control Garland ISD “Garland ISD has a multitude of amazing programs that you cannot find in the charter/private system. My two Garland ISD graduates were able to go to the campuses of their choice, and my remaining younger three will also be afforded the same winning opportunities.” Para una copia traducida, envíe un correo electrónico a [email protected].
