20 YEARS OF CHEER
For the 20th consecutive year, every
Pearland ISD school was able to deck their halls with
a beautiful live Christmas tree donated by South Park
Funeral Home and Cemetery.
This longstanding tradition enables each campus to
have a festive feel throughout December, with many
donating the tree to a family in need when schools
release for break.

School.
CONSIDERABLE
CONTRIBUTIONS
The Pearland Rotary Club strives to help meet the
needs of Pearland ISD, its students, administrators
and faculty. In particular, they find it important to ad-
dress needs that are not “high attention” items yet are
vitally important to having safe, world-class educa-
tional facilities. This fall, their members unanimously
supported a donation of four automated defibrilla-
tors (AEDs) to expand the availability of these devices
with the growth of the district.
Members of the Pearland Rotary Club accept a certificate of recognition from the
Pearland ISD Board of Trustees.
The Pearland Volunteer Fire Department awarded
over $22,000 to the Turner College & Career High
School EMT Program to purchase a power stretcher
and cardiac monitor. These items are crucial to
real-world EMT training in the classroom.
TCCHS EMT students receive the donation from Dr. Richard Bradley, president of the PVFD.
