HEB ISD Operation Back to School
9:00 am - 3:00 pm.
HEB ISD Operation Back to School is a coalition of churches, social services, school and civic agencies collaborating to give those less fortunate a "hand up" in starting the school year off right! The goal is to supply up to 6,400 children, grades Pre K-6, a new backpack and school supplies. Statistics show that over 51% of HEB ISD students come from homes that are classified "economically challenged." And, the district has identified 720 children who are classified as "homeless children."
Investing in the education of those at or below the poverty level is the most effective way for us to break the cycle of poverty and to improve the quality of life for our community.
It's about fun! Starting school ought to be a fun, exciting time, not a time of stress. We want every family to participate in this special event on August 14! We'll have lots of fun activities and a few surprises.
HEB ISD Operation Back to School is scheduled for August 14, 2010, 9:00 am - 3:00 pm. Participants will be invited to the location nearest to their schools.
