Hello!
You're invited to the initial
collaborative meeting about College for Texans Campaign "GO Centers" in the
Central
Texas area.
Find out how your high school (or a high school near you) may become a GO
Center.* GO Centers are a grassroots network of community-based college
recruiting centers, operate as high school and college student-led centers with
adult and higher education support; have physical facilities and computer
connectivity linking them to on-line resources; are organizational hubs for
college-going marketing and outreach efforts, serve as a local coordination
point for resources supporting the College for Texans Campaign, facilitate and
extend existing partnerships and develop new partnerships among K-12 schools,
institutions of higher education, local Workforce Development Boards, businesses
and other groups in the community.
Bonus! You'll have an opportunity to
meet local-area GO Center collaborative partners who are already establishing or
helping support local-area GO Centers.
*A community with a GO Center in a local
high school may also establish satellite GO Centers in libraries, WorkSource
offices, public-housing centers, etc.
