|
|
providers, IBC Certification organizations, STEM competition |
|
|
coalitions, professional learning companies, and equipment |
|
|
suppliers; moreover, Harmony has established makerspaces |
|
|
equipped with prototyping tools such as 3D printers, laser |
|
|
cutters, and CNC machines; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, For a quarter century, the faculty, staff, and |
|
|
administrators of Harmony Public Schools have dedicated |
|
|
themselves to meeting the educational needs of their students, |
|
|
and the school system has played a vital role in helping many |
|
|
young Texans build a bright and fulfilling future; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
