Live and Work in Junction AND Earn Your College Degree?

             Yes that can be possible.  Whether you have a family, just missed out on an opportunity to further your education in the past, have some college hours, or are just graduating from high school and would like to pursue a college degree; Junction ISD, Texas Tech University, and Central Texas College are combining their resources to help widen the avenues for those willing to embrace the educational challenge and reap the rewards, which are made possible through higher education.
            There are many ways to enter college programs and I encourage each person to look into the possibilities and options for college entrance before deciding that it may be impossible.
            There are requirements, but most all entrance requirements, such as the SAT/ACT, and THEA tests have preparatory trainings or placement tests, which are easily accessible and fashioned to help anyone with the desire, achieve their goals.
            Texas Tech has a program designed for those who would like to pursue a career in teaching kindergarten through 6th grade. Although, this is not the only degree plan available, it is the one being spotlighted as the educational entities attempt to provide career opportunities for residents in Junction and the surrounding area.
            A representative who will be able to answer any questions and help those interested in the K-6th grade teaching program take the first steps to a new career will travel to Junction when a minimum of ten people commit to meeting with the educational representative.
            The commitment to attend the meeting does not obligate you to enroll in college or the program but provides an opening to explore the choices you do have to live and work in Junction and also obtain your college degree.
            In order to receive notification of this meeting or if you have any questions you will need to contact Dr. Renee Schulze at Junction ISD at 325 446-3510 or 325 446-3580 and place your name on the list.

 

The meeting has been scheduled for
 February 28 at 4:00 pm
in the Middle School Library.
