Brazosport ISD - Holder

Yes, an ISD can be worthy of historical reflection.  Lanham begins an article in "The Facts," on Brazosport ISD   Retired teachers produce history of BISD By Katlynn Lanham The Facts ,  Published May 19, 2009 CLUTE — Frederick Holder and a group of retired teachers weren't finished giving history lessons when they left the classroom. Holder is presenting copies of the first volume of a three-book series, "The Antecedent and Early History of the Brazosport Independent School District." The first edition covers 1821 to 1917.

Holder's books will be able to answer any questions people might have, she said. "We can know something about what happened years ago," she said.

Eventually, they found Holder, a Freeport native and 1948 graduate of Freeport High School." Read more at http://thefacts.com/story.lasso?ewcd=033fd57af38a58f7
