ETSU Art Dorm
https://youtu.be/MWuST3MutYw
The entire state of Texas mourns those sweet souls lost in the floods this week. I’ve also lost two friends for health-related reasons from two different phases of my life in two days.
I’m heartbroken for their families and friends.
When I saw several people from my college posting photos I’ve made over the years, I knew something bad must have happened. I was right. However, I take comfort in knowing that my photos keep their spirits alive for those of us blessed to know these gentlemen.
I made a slideshow years ago for the East Texas State University Art Dorm residents. However, the slideshow was lost when I pulled down my photography website and became a REALTOR. Here are some images from that formative time in many of our lives. Farewell, dear friends.
Enough for now,
Mark

Please scan the QR code and help if you can.
I’m honored to live in Frisco and work in the surrounding communities. Many of these communities have legendary educational systems and produce curious, confident, and compassionate students. Those students are well-prepared for lifelong learning and equipped with critical thinking, creativity, and strong interpersonal skills.
The REALTORS and staff at Keller Williams North Country Realty would love to help every school in our vast North Texas service area, but we must focus our assistance on the highest needs. Tioga ISD needs our help this year. Please join me and give what you can to help this small community.
Tioga ISD has an 89 of 100 rating with the Texas Education Agency. The students do well academically. However, the district is in financial distress. Tioga ISD is a Title 1 school district.
A Title 1 district in Texas is a school district that receives supplemental funding from the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) to improve education programs for students from low-income families. The goal of Title 1 funding is to ensure that all children - especially those who are low-achieving - have an equal opportunity to a high-quality education.
According to the Tioga ISD website, “The Tioga ISD has been assigned an Accredited-Warned status due to the ratings assigned to the district in the state’s financial accountability rating system (FIRST). Specifically, the Tioga ISD was assigned a 2021 (Fiscal Year 20) and 2022 (Fiscal Year 21) financial accountability rating of F-Substandard Achievement on FIRST (Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas).”
In other words, they need financial help while they continue to produce high academic results. We can help by providing much-needed school supplies to help the students and teachers achieve to their highest abilities.
Tioga ISD teachers begin Staff Workdays on 15 August 2024. Students start classes on 27 August 2024.
