“Keller ISD’s Fine Arts program serves as a model for creativity, collaboration, and excellence,” said Travis Springfield, Past President of TxETA. “We applaud their remarkable efforts in promoting theatre arts.”
Keller ISD now joins an elite group of districts recognized statewide for advancing theatre education, thanks to the dedication of its theatre educators, fine arts departments, and supportive community.
