The Mission of Motivate Our Students Texas is to assist the public school system in their
mission to prepare students to succeed in life. That is, ensuring all students have access
to quality education that enables them to become productive citizens both socially and
economically. M.O.S.T. is an iRS 501 (c) 3 Non-Profit Organization.
Objectives of the Program include motivating students to become dedicated to education
and learning. This leads to increased academic skill, increased self-esteem and increased
social skills. These qualities also decrease classroom disruptions and discipline problems.
Motivate Our Students Texas supports public schools by organizing relationships between
public schools, their students and the local:
* Business Community
* Industrial Community
– Manufacturing
* Professionals:
Medical
Science/Engineering
Legal
* City and County Govt.
* The Military Community
* Institutions of Higher Learning
Educational Learning Expedition Field Trips
M.O.S.T. provides students age appropriate Educational Learning Expeditions. One is to an
institution of higher learning such as UTSA, UIW and Alamo Colleges. One to a Military
facility (Randolph, Lackland, Ft. Sam) and one to local business or industry.
Learning
about jobs
and
education
needed to get
those jobs.
Students actually see real people on the job and learn the range of salaries for particular
types of jobs. Fun jobs in life can even pay more money, but to get them, one has to
have proper education, proper behavior and proper appearance.
The MOST Program also arranges for professionals in the community to go to schools
and speak to students in classrooms. They discuss academic and non-academic keys
to success and the need to learn from their teachers math, science, reading and
writing so they can compete for the higher paying jobs in our society.
Speakers communicate qualities necessary for success in life. This includes importance
of being on time, the importance of avoiding drugs and alcohol, pregnancies, criminal
activity and the like. Talks last no more than 25 minutes.
As time goes by, students come to acknowledge the key to their success is to continue
their education beyond high school. They learn the actual person responsible for their
education, for their success, is no one other than themselves.
Real education about real life from real people in various careers who like their jobs and
make good incomes. M.O.S.T. encourages students to vision themselves in these jobs and
to Know jobs with higher salaries require higher levels of education. Their vision becomes
seed and with continued exposures students can connect with situations and people they
want to imitate. Investing in “at risk” children produces good fruit as these students
grow to become productive contributing members in our society. A successful life is
something students hope for. Their success is an America we all hope for.
It used to take a village to raise a child but today it takes the whole
community to raise and educate our children.
Join us in raising the arms of our youth in victory.
