Economic Analysis and Research Network. “A Well-‐Educated Workforce is Key to State Prosperity” August, 22, 2013April
Texas has had a job growth of 31.5%, growing almost triple the nationwide growth of 12%.

Students need ample opportunity to explore and try a variety of different courses, programs, and activities.
It’s important for students to identify what they don’t want to do in the future and know why they don’t like something.
Exercises that encourage sustained personal reflection are great ways to get to this kind of self insight. -Dr. Greta Davis
