🎶 Music opens doors to college opportunities! 🎓
This past Saturday, Killeen ISD high school students spent the day making music with the Central Texas College Fine Arts staff and students! Our high school students explored the campus, connected with college musicians, and learned about scholarship opportunities — all while doing what they love most: making music.
Experiences like this show how the arts can truly connect passion with future possibilities!
