Our 8th-grade AVID scholars recently set off on an inspiring field trip that combined college exploration with local history and culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During their campus visit to Texas Christian University (TCU), students toured the university grounds, learned about dynamic academic programs, and gained valuable insights into what to expect from the collegiate experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To round out the day, the scholars headed over to the historic Fort Worth Stockyards. Students enjoyed spending time together browsing local shops and sharing a meal at a Stockyards restaurant. It was a fantastic opportunity for our AVID students to expand their horizons, plan for their academic futures, and build lasting memories together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
