Call for Texas ACE Activities & Lesson Plans

Texas ACE invites you to contribute to the ACE Activity & Lesson Online Collection and enter your center in a monthly drawing for a video camera package (more information below)!  There are innovative and engaging activities being implemented across 120 Texas 21st CCLC grantees that positively impact students and their families every day and we want to learn about them! This is a great opportunity for Texas ACE grantees to come together and contribute to an online collection of afterschool activities that is easily searchable, accessible, and harvests our shared knowledge and experience with intentional afterschool programming! This online collection will be accessible through the Texas ACE web site (www.texasace21.org) and MyTexasACE.org portal Fall of 2010.
