The Rather Prize is awarded to a student, teacher, community organization or administrator in Texas that provides the best idea to improve Texas Education. This grant is awarded based on who can best answer the question, “What is your idea to improve education in the state of Texas?” Gracie is the first high school student to win the award. Learn about her idea for the Creativity Cove in the video linked below.
CAST Lead HIgh School will receive $10,000 to implement her idea at the school.
Congratulations, Gracie!
