At each open house, Texas 21st Century Community Learning Centers, TSC\u2019s grant-funded enrichment program, conducts outreach to recruit and inform students and parents of the program\u2019s activities and various information sessions offered free of cost.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve seen our students, our teachers and parents come and get firsthand information from Texas Southmost College professors that help show the different career pathways available through TSC,\u201d said Norma Jean Canales, principal of Rivera Early College High School. \u201cThese opportunities give them the awareness of what\u2019s offered and what they can do. Parents sometimes don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on in their community and with these open houses and information sessions they are given an in-depth idea about the careers available to their children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With Texas 21st Century Community Learning Centers, TSC advisors visit high school campuses and work directly with college labs, and assist parents with the college application process.<\/p>\n<p>Canales says that the connections that have been made produce a child who wants to keep on going to their college education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHonestly, I\u2019ve seen the growth with my students,\u201d said Beatriz Escobedo, a biology teacher at Rivera. \u201cThe meetings (TSC have) allow parents to understand that their child can have a future. There\u2019s opportunity because we live here and TSC is here. We\u2019re able to connect everyone and that\u2019s very important when it comes to education.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The college\u2019s Texas 21st Century Community Learning Centers attended sessions at Hanna ECHS, Porter ECHS, Pace ECHS, Lopez ECHS and Rivera ECHS.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div style=\"float: right; width: 300px; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 80%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/News\/Texas 21 CCLC at BISD w2.jpg\" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" alt=\"Texas Southmost College\u2019s 21st Century Community Learning Centers staff talk to parents and students Sept. 30, 2019 about educational opportunities at TSC.\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>Texas Southmost College\u2019s 21st Century Community Learning Centers staff talk to parents and students Sept. 30, 2019 about educational opportunities at TSC.<\/div>\n<p>Texas Southmost College\u2019s Texas 21st Century Community Learning Centers participated in BISD Early College High School open house days Sept. 30 to inform students and parents of the various opportunities available to them through the program\u2019s before and after school extracurricular activities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":158,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-540","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>TSC enrichment program enhances parent, student connection in BISD schools - News and Events<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tsc.edu\/news-and-events\/2019\/10\/01\/tsc-enrichment-program-enhances-parent-student-connection-in-bisd-schools\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"TSC enrichment program enhances parent, student connection in BISD schools\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Texas Southmost College\u2019s 21st Century Community Learning Centers staff talk to parents and students Sept. 30, 2019 about educational opportunities at TSC.
