"Each year the Texas Association of Partners in Education (TAPE) recognizes outstanding school district/business and community partnerships throughout our great state," commented Caleen Allen, General Manager for HISD Strategic Partnerships.
"There are about five categories of awards with one to four subcategories. In early October the HISD Strategic Partnerships Department submitted a nomination for Houston Ballet's Ben Stevenson Academy to receive a TAPE award because of the Academy's untiring, dedicated service to our district and the students of HISD. With great pride, I commend the Academy for its outstanding work within our district."
