      <image:title>Story - Empower Schools Awarded $750,000 Grant from Greater Texas Foundation - Empower Schools is proud to announce a $750,000 grant from Greater Texas Foundation to support the expansion of Rural Pathway Excellence Partnerships (R-PEP) to three additional regions: Region 14, Region 1, and Region 16, and support broader efforts to spread the rural collaborative model.</image:title>
      <image:caption>While rural learners in Texas graduate from high school at higher rates than their urban peers, they remain less likely to enroll in postsecondary education. Awarded in the spring of 2025, this investment has already started to address that gap by supporting the implementation of new R-PEPs that will serve approximately 15 rural school districts, creating stronger college and career pathways for students in historically underserved communities.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resource - Fast Tracking Student Success - Indiana's Class of 2029 faces new diploma requirements including career pathways, credentials of value, and work-based learning hours. For rural schools, making up 28% of Indiana's schools, limited staffing and geographic isolation make compliance challenging. Rural Alliance Zone-32 (RAZ-32), a 501(c)(3) partnership between three East Central Indiana school districts, Ivy Tech Community College, and local employers, offers a scalable solution. By sharing instructors, facilities, and career pathways across districts, RAZ-32 gives students access to programs in health science, welding, precision machining, CDL training, and more. With braided funding, employer co-design, and formal governance, RAZ-32 provides a replicable blueprint for equitable career-readiness in rural communities nationwide.</image:title>
