Take Care of Texas is launching a new Ambassador Program and has selected 15 educators to participate this school year. The goal is to equip these educators with knowledge and resources to spread awareness of the Take Care of Texas program among colleagues and administrators.
The ambassadors are K-12 science educators passionate about protecting the Texas environment who are willing to provide feedback on the curriculum to help improve educational resources. Over the 2024-2025 school year, the ambassadors will utilize provided lesson plans and help promote the program and its contests with colleagues and students across the state.
The 2024-2025 class of ambassadors includes:
Alli Ramsey, Garner Preparatory Academy
Amanda Adair, All Saints Episcopal School
Cassandra Nobles, Comal Creek Elementary School
Heath Barber, Boles Junior High School
Janet Pena, United Middle School
Janice Ainbinder, Flour Bluff Intermediate School
