the loan program. The recipients
of the award pay back the funds

"The school district benefits
from this program by increasing
the number of minority teachers,
James said, "and the student bene
fits by receiving a grant to go to
school and hopefully give back to
an area of critical need (educa

If the student does not teach at
the school district, he or she must
repay the amount awarded from
the school district. Funds received
from Texas A&M do not have to
be paid back.
