President - Grayson College

“The Texoma Promise is a network of colleges and school districts who are saying to our students that are in high school, ‘You have a path and a place at our college, and we make that promise to you.’”

Michelle Burton

Academic Services Coordinator - SOSU

“The whole idea of going to college is very daunting for a lot of our high school kids. And if their parents have never been to college, it's daunting for them also.  A program like Texoma Promise can make them feel a lot more comfortable with the process to help their kids get to college.”

Dr. David Hicks

Superintendent - Sherman ISD

“Texoma Promise is a promise of a better future, and it's an investment in our kids.  As educators, community members, businesses, and philanthropists, we're making a promise to the next generation. We’ll give you whatever it takes and will support you to do whatever you dream to do.”
