Many of the Galveston ISD schools will be ready to go by next Tuesday, including Ball High School. But many students and staff won’t have to wait until then to see each other.

The district has been busy with cleanup since the storm, and staff will be back at the reopening schools today. Ball High School students will have the chance to meet this morning for a pep rally for all teams at 10am at Spoor Field. Oct. 3, 2008
