Happy Veterans Day from the LISD TECH Center! In collaboration with several programs at the LISD TECH Center and departments across the LISD, Nursing Prep students organized a gift bag drive to honor local veterans. Through this effort, 200 veterans living in area care facilities, receiving services through the Department on Aging, or supported by Visiting Angels received a special gift bag as a token of gratitude for their service. Over the past two days, Nursing Prep students personally visited local veterans to thank them and celebrate their contributions to our country.

Halloween spirit is alive and well at the LISD TECH Center! 👻

Our staff are engineering some serious fun today... a nod to Kim Benson, our Engineering, Design & CAD instructor, who passed out these fun and festive headbands.

It feels like this photo is a billboard to say "You should join our team!"
