Education commissioner visits Harlingen schools

Mike Morath, Texas Education Commissioner, toured three Valley schools today including the Harlingen School for Health Professions.

He spoke in a casual, conversational manner with school officials and students alike. Students from Treasure Hills Elementary sutured banana peelings to demonstrate what they’d learned from student mentors at HSHP.

He also said he was glad to see the partnerships between business and education and the rest of the community.
