More than 400 students were given college acceptance letters from Paul Quinn College, a private Historically Black College and University in Dallas.
– Hundreds of Fort Worth ISD students were given the surprise of a lifetime, while attending a college basketball game in Dallas Thursday night, Feb. 17.
“I came here for a college experience, to see hands on what college is all about,” Eastern Hills High School student Ke’shawn Rubell said. Gardner was one of the more than 400 students who were given college acceptance letters from Paul Quinn College, a private Historically Black College and University in Dallas.
“We unrealistically expect students from under resourced communities, who are first generation students to be hero’s and we put pressure on them when we should be looking for ways to be more inclusive,” Sorrell said.“Relived our students the question of what do I do after high school,” Fort Worth ISD’s Jerry Moore said.“Being accepted into an HBCU, it really connects you to our culture and makes you feel happy and you can enjoy your experience here,” Gardner said.
