Vestal Elementary

Our Harlandale ISD community came together for a beautiful evening of celebration at this year’s District Family Night: Remember Me Night, a Día de los Muertos themed event hosted at Harlandale High School.

Families enjoyed colorful ofrendas, student artwork, performances from our choirs and the HHS Mariachi, along with games and prizes, face painting, treats and plenty of community fun. Thank you to everyone who joined us and to all our amazing staff who helped make the night so special.

A big thank you to our Parent Advisory Committee for joining us at the first meeting of the school year!

Superintendent Mr. Gerardo Soto and our District Cabinet Members shared valuable insights, direction and progress on everything from district improvements to curriculum, extracurriculars and exciting new programs. These meetings ensure parent voices remain at the heart of our decisions. Together we continue to strengthen our #HarlandaleLegacy!
