Johnson, William; Johnson, Annabel M.; Randolph, Joe; Schmitz, Mary Alice
Phi Delta Kappan, v79 n10 p781-83 Jun 1998
The Texas Scholars Program, a joint business/education venture, is a low-cost program that motivates the "forgotten majority" (lower ranked students) to complete a rigorous academic curriculum preparing them for the labor market or postsecondary education. Since 1989, Eastman Chemical Company business leaders have been "recruiting" eighth graders. Participants take a 24-credit program requiring a "C" average. (MLH)
