"founded
in 1996, a window of opportunity foundation provides incentive
awards and scholarships to h.i.s.d. students who lack the
necessary funds to further their education. a good
education is vital to the quality of life for all children, and
is basic for the future strength of our country. i have dedicated
my administration to the children of houston, and salute those
committed to this worthwhile endeavor on their behalf"

a very starch supporter of education and i truly believe that
no student should be left behind and a mind is a terrible
thing to waste. so i am always looking for ways to help my
students to achieve their goals. the window of opportunity
foundation has been instrumental in providing the students
with financial assistance.

students, their families and myself for them to be able to
realize their dreams. the window of opportunity foundation has
made this happen and we at bellaire deca are very
grateful."
