Texas Scholars are high school students from the Fort Stockton Independent School District who have completed a specific curriculum that provides a high level of skills and readiness for the labor market or college.
Freshmen are required to volunteer 5 service hours to be a Texas Scholar and older students are required to volunteer 10 hours per year. Students must complete a total of 35 hours of volunteer service by the March deadline of their senior year to receive the Texas Scholar red/white/blue cord recognition at graduation.
Volunteer service must be performed locally for a non-profit, religious or community service organization. A list of organization that have indicated an interest in Texas Scholar volunteers is available in the High School Guidance Office.
