President / CEO Rowlett Chamber of Commerce
One of Garland ISD’ s best-kept secrets is the GISD Education Foundation! The Foundation provides grants to teachers to purchase things for their classrooms that the district doesn’ t have the resources to fund. Anyone can contribute and help.

Special Education Aide Sewell Elementary School
Garland ISD’ s best-kept secret is that elementary students get to use iPads for lessons. Another secret is that the new Gilbreath-Reed Career and Technical Center is absolutely amazing. Our students get hands-on, real-world experience.

Cat Nguyen
Student Memorial Pathway Academy
Through my studies at Memorial Pathway Academy, I have changed a lot about myself. I learned to overcome my own fear. I am now confident when I speak English with teachers and friends. I learned to accept and modify and be more social.

Event Coordinator Curtis Culwell Center
I believe two of Garland ISD’ s best-kept secrets are the magnet and Career and Technical Education programs offered. I think allowing students to explore a variety of advanced programs that extend past the standard curriculum is truly a great opportunity.
