Jackie Ekeoba, a top student in the teachHOUSTON teacher-preparation
program at the University of Houston, earned a merit scholarship, made
possible by a gift from the Sid Richardson Foundation. Through the support
of a stipend, she also works in the program’s administrative offices,
where she is able to practice her skills learned from the program by
helping newer teachHOUSTON students with their lesson plans.
