A 10-year-old at @HarmonyEdu built AI-powered glasses to assist visually impaired children. Lucas just took first place at his school science fair AND the Greater Austin Regional Science and Engineering Fair.

Congratulations Lucas and congratulations to Harmony Public Schools for nurturing exactly this kind of extraordinary student.

Our alumni coaches are living proof of the Profile of a Harmony Graduate: leading, mentoring, and giving back.
