Gerald Anderson, Brazosport In
dependent School District superin
tendent and one of the leaders in the
program, said the program has en
hanced relations between the Sys
tem and public education in schools.
“We work primarily with the
University and the public
schools,” Anderson said. “It has
continued Texas’ journey relating
to education, so that high school
students graduate feeling more
prepared to enter college.”
Anderson has worked with the
program in the Brazosport School
District since its adoption three
years ago.
The Partnership for Texas Public
Schools has received $13 million in
awards, including funding from the
U.S. Department of Education, the
Pew Charitable Tfust and the Sid

The partnership includes more
than 400 individual collaborative ef

time leaving West Campus on
Olsen Road and turning right onto
George Bush Drive, which inter

chance to meet with A&M officials.
“I’d like to see at least 50 students
apply,” Estrada said. “We want it to
be competitive, and if we interview
less than three students per scholar
ship, I’d be disappointed.”
He said depending on the suc
