Nita Tyson
Senior HR Manager , Ecolab
The best thing about Garland ISD is the teachers . They exhibit passion that promotes excitement in students , and a desire to excel . By making their learning experience a No . 1 priority , students gain a sense of value for their education as it applies to the world beyond school classrooms .
Justin Shields
Parent , Watson Technology Center for Math & Science
I feel Garland ISD ’ s best asset is its focus on students . My daughter ’ s teachers are extremely focused on her education and well-being while in class . Her growth is because of the love they show her and hard work they put in day in and day out .
Sandra Cantu
Parent Educator , Family and Community Engagement Department
The best thing about Garland ISD is the people who I work with and the job I do every day . I am part of a great department that works to strengthen the partnership between community , families and schools .
Everson Scott
Teacher , O ’ Banion Middle School
GISD takes students ’ interests to the next level . This district has Choice of School , programs geared toward specific careers , a new career and technical center , and AVID in all schools . AVID helps students in organization and effective studying , eventually guiding them in making correct decisions about entering college .
Sabrina Tran
Class of 2017 Graduate , Rowlett High School
I think what I enjoyed the most were the teachers and staff who dedicate their time and efforts to make GISD better every day . A prime example was the transition to iPads . All the teachers incorporated their work to make it easier for students .
