The Hallsville Education Foundation was created in 2001 to discover resources to fund educational projects that otherwise would not be funded through HISD's regular budget.  Throughout it's life, the Foundation has channeled thousands of local dollars back into the HISD schools, all for the benefit of students.  Without the Foundation, many critical experiences would not be available to the children of Hallsville.
