Families in the Houston area, including Pearland, are preparing for the upcoming school year. Many schools require a birth certificate for enrollment, prompting hundreds of parents to visit Harris County Clerk annexes.

In an effort to make the process more convenient, all 10 Harris County Clerk annex locations were open on a Saturday. This allowed parents to obtain birth certificates without having to take time off work.

Further details about the event and the importance of obtaining birth certificates before the school year are available from the Harris County Clerk and news outlets, such as KPRC 2.
