HP
Arts is a non-profit
corporation supporting
HPISD arts programming. It was established
in 1987 by a group of parents with children
attending schools in the Highland Park
Independent School District. |
The specific purpose
of HP Arts is to enrich HPISD students'
educational experience by encouraging
their interest and participation in
the arts. |
***All HP Arts members
are invited to attend the General Membership
Meeting at 11:30 am, April 8, 2008 at
the HPHS Small Auditorium.
After a brief business update, you
will be treated to a tour of the arts
classes and activities at the high school.
It is a great behind-the-scenes look
at our arts resources in action!*** |

HP Arts sponsored the Le Theatre de Marionette performance
of "The Wizard of Oz" on April 25 for kindergarten
students at Bradfield Elementary. Students delighted
in seeing the puppets comes to life in this classic
tale. Puppeteer Kent Williams shows students Storey
Harbison and Alex Clark how to operate the Toto and
Flying Monkey puppets. |
We feel a responsibility
as a part of the Park Cities community, as parents
and as your friends and neighbors, to help all
the children attending schools in the HPISD find
areas of education and experience which will give
them the greatest opportunity to develop their
individual potential as people." |
