This initiative is a new central component of the Texas High School Project (THSP), a $180 million public-private initiative committed to increasing graduation rates and college enrollment rates in every Texas community. The THSP’s partners include the Texas Education Agency, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, Communities Foundation of Texas, educators, and others. The goal of T-STEM Academies is to develop the nation’s leading innovation economy workforce by aligning high school, postsecondary education, and economic development activities. A total of 13 Harmony Schools, throughout the state, were selected to be part of this T-STEM initiative. Powered by Create your own unique website with customizable templates.
