Twelve-hundred students from nine school districts across Texas attended Middle School Partnering Day on March 21, 2018, “It’s Hollywood Style at PV.”

Dr. Talitha Lewis, director of PVAMU’s Office for Strategic Partnerships and K-12 Outreach said, “This year’s Middle School Day was exciting. It was truly like we were in HOLLYWOOD with lots of talent and big personalities! The students were PVAMU stars for the day, and we rolled the red carpet out for them. During their day-long stay, they toured campus and were able to see where our students ate, worshipped, attended games and class. They also saw our state-of-the-art laboratories. In addition, they were able to interact with our students, who shared their journeys to PVAMU. They even discussed career goals. It was a great day.”

Mark Anderson, M.Ed., a Male Mentor sponsor at Garcia Middle School in Fort Bend ISD wrote: “Thank you for a great presentation of Prairie View A&M University! My boys are still talking about it today. Many teachers say that the boys they spoke with loved the school and left with a very positive impression of Prairie View. We look forward to returning next year.”
