District Celebrates Texas Pride by Taking Part in Go Texan Day

Disponible en:

Everyone — young and old — is encouraged to put on their best western on Friday, February 25.

Rodeo fans, it is time to dust off your boots and cowboy hats. The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™ is right around the corner.

The Rodeo will begin its annual run at the NRG Park complex on Monday, February 28, 2022, and conclude on Sunday, March 20.

To recognize Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo’s significant contributions to public education, Aldine ISD will be observing Go Texan Day on Friday, February 25, 2022. District employees and students are encouraged to come to work and school dressed in their best western wear.

For 90 years, the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™ has been a valuable educational partner. Since its beginning in 1932, the Rodeo has committed more than $550 million to Texas youth and education. Students across the Houston community — including Aldine ISD grads — are on Rodeo scholarships. Each year, more than 800 scholarships are awarded to Texas students by the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™. As one of the largest scholarship providers in the U.S., the Rodeo has presented more than 20,000 scholarships valued at $260 million since 1957.
