Amid the government shutdown, ILTexas has been forced to reschedule our Distinguished Student Ambassador Program trip to Washington, D.C., scheduled to take place next week. 

While incredibly disappointing, we are adapting and overcoming - just as we teach our students to do - and plan to take the trip in February or March. 

As a result, ILTexas was featured in news outlets throughout the state, sharing the impact the shutdown is having on our students. We encourage you to take a look and share with your friends and family members to help spread the word about ILTexas and our incredible, persevering students.
