Early Scholars Academy

With the help of Jerry, Taylor and my friend & co-worker's son Daniel - ESC2 finally broke ground yesterday for our children's interactive learning center. They were featured on the front page of the local section of the Caller Times. Taylor was actually on the front page of the paper! http://www.caller.com/news/2009/nov/10/childrens-educational-building-groundbreaking/ This is going to be an amazing place for the school children of South Texas to visit. Think about boarding a submarine for story time with your teacher, exploring space via a space ship with video screens for windows, playing in tee pees and stage coaches, climbing a Mayan temple, pretending to be a paleontologist, building a city, releasing butterflies into the rain forest, hearing the supply plane fly over while you are in your survival tent in the Arctic - oh, I could go on & on forever. It will not be open to the public - it will be for organized school trips only - for children 3-5. But there is talk of summer camps.Taylor is assisting our Executive Director, Dr. Linda Villarreal. And Jerry is helping one of the ESC Board members. That is the Caller Times photographer down in front.

Jerry with the chairman of the board.

They were allowed to keep their hard hats - He wore his to HEB after the ground breaking.
