We brag that everything is bigger and better in Texas, and there is no star that shines brighter than our Lone Star. The pride of the Lone Star state is evident and the symbolism of the flag dates back to the early Republic of Texas. Pride in our state rivals our pride as members of this great nation and our spirit of patriotism. The vastness of our state symbolizes the bountiful opportunity available to our students in this land of opportunity, and our students are shining stars ready to take off in bright futures.
