Thank you for making a difference!

Students Meet and Thank Donors

On April 28, at the annual Giving Societies reception to recognize members for their generous support and meet their recipients, the student scholarship recipients greeted donors with genuine gratitude by holding signs with the names of the scholarships they received from these committed donors.

Hopes & Aspirations High

There’s a lyric in our alma mater that really resonates with me. I feel it’s especially timely for TXST: “O, Alma Mater, set upon the green hills, with turrets pointing upward to the sky, we yield to thee our love and our devotion; mother of hopes and aspirations high.” Hopes & Aspirations High reminds us of our noble, higher calling to keep students at the heart of all we do. It captures the potential and promise ahead for them and for those of us who have made helping them succeed our life’s work.
– President Kelly Damphousse
