269 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 4, ISSUE 10 HURST-EULESS-BEDFORD INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT had limited recess options, and so we want to increase those because play is important also in their growth and development,” he notes. When discussing the diverse programming offered in the district, Harrington focuses on the inclusion of Suzuki strings, computer science, fine arts, and Spanish Immersion programs. Originally, there was a plan to establish a dedicated STEM school, but he admits it quickly became evident that these options should be accessible across all campuses. Consequently, STEM has been integrated into every school, with several libraries incorporating materials to create mini makerspaces. Along with computer science options available at two of HEB ISD’s elementary schools, fine arts is also emphasized. “We take a lot of pride in our fine arts here in HEB. Our bands, our orchestra, dance, theater, it is tremendous.” tccd.edu 817-515-8223 Contact us today to learn more! TCC GIVES YOUMORE !
