“
GISD was unbelievably
important to my preparation
in life. I had phenomenal
teachers and coaches. I was
extremely well-prepared
academically for college.
Being given a chance
to struggle, learn
and fail. Being given
encouragement to work
hard. Garland ISD gave me
a great deal, helping make
me who I am today. I am lucky
I had the opportunity to attend
such great schools.
Gig ‘em Owls!
