Heal Play Learn
This innovative partnership with Educate Texas delivers hands-on learning opportunities to students in three Southern Dallas school districts, providing fun and exciting ways for children to engage with learning.
Heal Play Learn is a summertime educational program developed in response to the school-related challenges and stress brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. Through activities such as dance and music classes, science experiments, cooking demonstrations and more, the initiative encourages students’ social and emotional wellness, physical activity, creativity, collaboration and critical thinking skills.
