HAYS COUNTY EDUCATION
Innovation is occurring in the Hays County education systems, and area leaders gathered together to inform the public on the ins and outs of what programs are available to local youth. This opportunity was provided by the San Marcos Area Chamber of Commerce in concert with the Greater San Marcos Partnership during its annual Workforce and Education Summit. The Superintendents of Hays County school districts — Dr. Michael Cardona, San Marcos CISD; Dr. Holly Morris-Kuentz, Dripping Springs ISD; Dr. Greg Bonewald, Wimberley ISD and Dr. Eric Wright, Hays ISD — sat down for a discussion to talk about where the schools are heading and where they’d like to go.
Cardona boasted about San Marcos High School’s 21 Career and Technical Training programs, adding that the district tries to “build programs around our kids and not around the system.” He also discussed some of the partnerships that are allowing San Marcos students to thrive.
