I feel that at Harlandale we have a lot of unique opportunities to learn. Teachers really take the time to make sure their students are grasping the information at hand and excelling in the classroom. Personally, my experience with all my teachers has been amazing. I feel that they explain the material fully and allow my classmates and I to understand the information completely. However, I feel that since our community is mainly Hispanic and a lot of students only speak Spanish, classes tend to go at a slower pace. Teachers have to take extra time to repeat questions and explain answers because Spanish speakers need more time to process the information. This is also impacting our college readiness levels because most of us are not prepared for the fast pace learning environment of college. This problem can be fixed if we separate non-English speakers and English speakers in the classroom.
The Harlandale ISD district seems to put a lot of effort into making the education at the school the best that it can. It often makes large investments into education related equipment and books and also seems to take pride in their teachers. They find the best teachers money can buy and always put the education and safety of students first!
Harlandale is a very community based school district. A lot of traditions. For example the biggest one is Frontier Bowl. It's the rivalry game against the biggest rival McCollum. A whole week is spirit week. And on Friday during the day everyone leaves school early and goes to tailgate at memorial stadium for the game. Great time to interact with the community and friends.The teachers grew up in the area and most even went to Harlandale so they understand the challenges students go through and are dedicated to helping them as much as they can. The school offers a lot of resources and help for seniors when planning to go to college. The sports is a big one Harlandale has a great support system in sports and the parents make sure to make every season memorable and fun.
