Saturday is HISD’s big day to get dropouts back in school. HISD’s press office has sent out the following information:
On Saturday, August 27, 1,262 volunteers and HISD teachers and officials will go door-to-door in neighborhoods around 16 high schools to find dropouts and get them back into school. The teams, which will include former dropouts who turned their lives around by going back to school, will gather at the high schools at 8 a.m. and stream out into the neighborhoods to catch kids at home early on a Saturday morning.
