Take Care of Texas has launched the second year of its Ambassador Program, selecting 22 educators to participate in the initiative. The program aims to provide these K-12 science educators with knowledge and resources to help spread awareness of the Take Care of Texas program among colleagues and administrators.

According to Take Care of Texas, the selected ambassadors are committed to protecting the state’s environment and will also offer feedback to improve educational materials.
