The details
The public charter school selects students via lottery, which was held Feb. 13. Seed said families who are not selected to attend the school via the lottery system will be put on a waitlist. Students who are accepted or waitlisted will not have to reapply for the following school year.
A Harmony Public Schools campus is on track to open in Georgetown in August, said Tracie Seed, HPS Central Texas director of communication and marketing. The building that will house the rst phase of the campus will be completed in May, she said. The school will o er pre-K through sixth grade, and will add a new grade each year until it is a pre-K-12 institution. The school will teach a science, technology, engineering and math-focused curriculum, Seed said. She said the community has expressed support for the upcoming school. “They were very welcoming to us and arms wide open,” she said. “We feel very comfortable coming in here, and it’s a home now for our new campus.”
