Schools Open Friday

After closely assessing road conditions and our buildings, Garland ISD campuses and offices will open at their regularly scheduled time on Friday, January 30, 2026.

The Vision of the 1 for 2 Education Foundation is to create an engaged community of scholars who empower each other to achieve their aspirations.

The 1 for 2 Education Foundation is seeking highly motivated students planning to attend accredited U.S. four year colleges and universities to apply for its tuition scholarships. The Foundation’s unique scholarship program employs a “pay it forward” model that encourages scholars to take responsibility for their education. Persons awarded a grant by the Foundation commit themselves to “pay it forward” by agreeing to support the education of their fellow scholars.
