I attended elementary school in the Richardson Independent School District, and now as a college student, I work as an Assistant Instructor at PACE Afterschool Program and I have always loved school, especially the well stocked library and computer labs. They ate pristine, and even better than the ones we have at college. Richardson is a diverse city and the students are well adapted to associating with everyone.
