Our Johnson County EOC team spent the morning last Saturday at the Johnson County Apples Coalition Back to School event at Cleburne High School, supporting local families as they gear up for a new school year. We loved reconnecting with current clients, meeting new families, and partnering with community organizations that help students start the year prepared and supported.📚️ 📝 💫

✨️ Flashback Friday ✨️

We're throwing it back to our amazing Road to Opportunity trips! Our Upward Bound students spent the summer exploring college campuses, diving into hands-on STEM experiences, discovering career pathways, meeting with Texas Parks & Wildlife, testing water quality in Corpus Christi, exploring caverns, cruising the River Walk, visiting the Texas State Aquarium, and making memories across Texas.

Learning doesn't stop in the classroom, and these experiences are just one of the many ways we prepare our students for bright futures. 💙

From The University of Texas at Arlington to Southwestern Adventist University, our students have been making the most of every opportunity through academic enrichment, hands-on learning, college experiences, leadership development, and memories that will last a lifetime.
