Texas 4-H Collegiate Edu-Nation Program

The Texas 4-H Collegiate Edu-Nation program is a partnership between rural school districts that are part of the Collegiate Edu-Nation network, and the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service’s 4-H Youth Development Program. This partnership is designed to empower young people to build a future with more opportunity, prosperity, and impact. 4-H AgriLife Extension is supporting the Collegiate Edu-Nation Model through the Research component.

Texas 4-H Champion School Program

The Texas 4-H Champion School Program is a partnership between local school districts and the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service’s 4-H Youth Development Program. This partnership is designed to improve the lives of young Texans and their families via experiential learning in a school setting. The goal of the Texas 4-H Champion School Program goes beyond the classroom through development of school-based 4-H clubs where life skills such as responsibility, public speaking, career investigation, and healthy habits are developed. These skills empower youth to become the leaders of tomorrow! For the Texas 4-H Champion School Program to offer the greatest benefit, the following pre-approved curriculum are suggested for use. Additionally, schools may work with Texas A&M AgriLife staff to customize programs to better meet the needs of students, staff, and communities.

Some documents are now hosted on the AgriLife Intranet. AgriLife Extension employees, click here to access that information.
