BRENHAM PRINCIPAL SELECTED FOR SPECIAL PROGRAM

  

The principal at Brenham Elementary School will be taking part in a special program at an Ivy League school.

Jennifer Vest has been selected to participate in the 2019 Raise Your Hand Texas Leadership Program at the Harvard Graduate School of Education in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Vest is among 100 school leaders who were selected to attend the program in June, titled Improving Schools: The Art of Leadership.

BISD officials say Vest was selected because of her potential to improve outcomes at her campus and affect significant change within the district and throughout the region.

Vest receives an all-expenses paid training opportunity, and becomes a member of the statewide network of over 1,200 Raise Your Hand Texas alumni.

Vest says, “it is an honor and privilege to represent Brenham ISD and Brenham Elementary this summer at Harvard University.”  She went on to say, she’s also “thankful for the generous sponsorship of Raise Your Hand Texas.”
