Act Locally Waco: Show your college pride and support the Education Alliance

[Thornton, Ashley]

Hello all -- I thought I would forward this request from the Education Alliance -- please join in!  It's a fun easy way to support the goal of building a college-going culture.  Thanks!

 

Join the Greater Waco Community Education Alliance and area educators in celebrating the second annual GenTX Day!

 

On Friday, May 4^th, Generation TX is asking students, families, business and community leaders around the state to Wear your favorite college T- shirt in a united show of support for building a college-going culture that supports Texas students in pursuing career and technical training and two and four-year degrees after high school.

 

 Increasing rates of participation and success is critical to the future of Texas, and is particularly critical as Central Texas continues to compete to attract investment and knowledge workers to our region. Click here to learn more!

Generation TX is a statewide initiative supported by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board that is focused on creating a college-going culture across the state. Through GenTX Day and other seasonal promotions, Generation TX is clarifying the path to college for Texas students and families by providing information on college readiness, college application and financial aid in a fresh and engaging manner.
