About AchieveTexas
you may have seen the name AchieveTexas on the cover of this magazine. What exactly is that?
Well, AchieveTexas is the name of Texas’s college and career education initiative. The idea behind it is
simple: planning for the future so that students achieve lifelong success. As AchieveTexas is implemented,
students will see how subjects such as English, math, science, and social studies are relevant to their
personal colllege and career goals. Students will get the chance to begin a plan that gets them where
they want to go in life. Students will have the opportunity to take courses and engage in extended learning
experiences that give them marketable skills. Best of all, students will be in control of their future.
It is the policy of the Texas Education Agency not to discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, or handicap in its career and technical programs, services, or activities.
AchieveTexas in Action is developed by A3 Creative Group (www.A3CreativeGroup.com) under a contract from Texas Tech University and the Texas Education Agency.
