Hard work and high aspirations should be enough to succeed in our country, but unfortunately the rising cost of higher education is making it more difficult. In the next legislative session I will fight to ensure all hard-working Texans have an opportunity to go to college, but parents, grandparents, students, teachers and others would also be wise to learn more about how to pay for school in these difficult times. That's why I'm pleased to invite you to my next workshop, Planning and Paying for Our Children's College Education.
Please join me, state officials, and local experts to learn about savings plans, scholarships, and other critical information about planning and paying for higher education - including the new Texas Prepaid Tuition Plan that opens up September 10.
The workshop is free, and refreshments are provided.
- Mike
