Request by the Commissioner of Precinct 2 that the County Judge execute a 381 Agreement to provide a financial literacy program, including integrating The Stock Market Game, for students of Galena Park ISD (GPISD) in an amount not to exceed $83,200.
Harris County may fund up to $83,200 for a financial literacy program, including The Stock Market Game, for Galena Park ISD students.
Harris County Commissioners Court will vote on July 9, 2026 on a contract to fund a financial literacy program for students in Galena Park ISD (GPISD). The program includes The Stock Market Game, where students in grades 4–12 manage a simulated $100,000 investment portfolio. Harris County would contribute up to $83,200 through a Chapter 381 economic development agreement. GPISD serves a community east of Houston that is about 82% Hispanic and 88% economically disadvantaged.
Harris County may spend up to $83,200 on a financial literacy program for Galena Park ISD students. Neighbors in that district could see a new in-school program. County funds would be used.
