ACC is closed today, but for a good reason!

We’re at the ACC General Assembly, and we’re proud to share that Rebecca and Ethan, two ASCENDER students, were part of the student panel! 🎤

It was a great opportunity to hear directly from our students and learn how we can continue to work together to support their success and experiences at ACC.

So, if you see them around, give them a shout-out for being vulnerable and brave enough to share their stories!

And just like that… the matches are made!

Over the past two weeks, we brought together 120+ students and mentors across four ACC campuses for our Mentor-Mentee Matching Sessions! 🎉

Our students met their mentors for the very first time, connected through group activities, shared laughs, and started building the relationships that will support them throughout their ASCENDER journey.

🎓✨ Campus life, new friendships, and unforgettable memories!

This weekend, 20 ASCENDER students stepped out of their comfort zones and into the college experience through Catch the Next! 🏫💙

From staying overnight in university residence halls to hearing inspiring stories from professionals and transfer students, our scholars got a firsthand look at what their future can hold. 🚀

They also connected with students from community colleges across Texas, expanded their networks, and built friendships that will last far beyond the weekend. 🤝⭐

And of course, no great weekend is complete without a little friendly competition 🎳😎—the bowling lanes brought out some serious skills (and maybe a few rivalries 😉).

A weekend full of growth, community, and memories made. The future is bright for these ASCENDER students! 🌟 CommunityCollege CollegeBound

Si Se Puede!🤩

On April 26, we celebrated the 11th Annual ASCENDER Celebración Ceremony at ACC Eastview!

This bilingual event honored 100 students who completed their first year in the ASCENDER program and received a traditional stole to recognize their hard work and achievement.

Thank you to our faculty, advisors, mentors, and families for supporting our students every step of the way! 🫶✨

We officially wrapped up our high school visits with Harmony!

It was so cool to see a full room of students who have applied or are in the process of attending ACC this Fall 2026 🥳

What’s next, you may ask?
Fall registration opens in two weeks!

Not one, not two… but 25 ASCENDER students showed up yesterday—rain and all—for the ASCENDER Cultural Potluck 🌎✨

An idea sparked by students who wanted to learn more about each other’s backgrounds turned into something truly special.

From fruit kolaches from Slovakia 🇸🇰, to mole from Puebla 🇲🇽, to pão de queijo from Brazil 🇧🇷 every dish and student told a story.

A beautiful afternoon… and maybe the start of a new tradition 💛
