A recap of our amazing partnership with Elsik High School this semester

We had a successful session where we taught 20 students “How to Tie a Tie.” Special thanks to Joel Jackson from Workforce Solutions for volunteering his time to help with the demonstration.

The following day, we took 17 of the students on a field trip to Amegy Bank’s downtown office. They participated in a session on financial literacy and even got a tour of the bank vault, where they were able to hold and touch millions of dollars (no photos were allowed, of course). Some of the young men even wore their ties to showcase their new skills and professional appearance. Amegy Bank generously provided lunch and swag bags for each student.

Our partnership will continue with one more session, titled “Self-Improvement and Confidence Building,” before we wrap up for the semester.
