Some Dripping Springs area businesses and organizations have come up with some offerings to add to the educational experience of students who will not be attending class as usual. They’re doing so by means of organizing and/or hosting pods--a small group of students learning together with the help of a tutor or facilitator. Head to Toe Dance Studio will be offering a program for remote learners who are in grades 3rd through 8th.
Final lane closures will take place this weekend as road construction is nearing completion on Founders Park Road.
