HAULs Science Project

Posted on



Houston Area Urban League
Project Ready Program






Meet Theodore. He is one of many chicks from HAUL’s Early Education Science project. He hatched May 8th and has been a true Urban Leaguer since.


Children at some of the 22 Head Start sites had an opportunity to see larva become butterflies and chicks hatch from eggs. You have now met one of HAUL’s - Terri’s project.

Beginning next week, HAUL EYD will stream science lessons for early childhood educators. Please refer Early Childhood Educators, parents and others to view the science lessons on insects and butterflies.

First Generation: Documentary Film Screening and Discussion

Posted on

This award-winning documentary film tells the story of four high school students – an inner city athlete, a small town waitress, a Samoan warrior dancer, and the daughter of migrant field workers – who set out to break the cycle of poverty and bring hope to their families and communities by pursuing a college education.

Shot over the course of three years and featuring some of our nation's top educational experts (Richard Kahlenberg, The Century Foundation; J.B. Schramm, College Summit; Dr. Bill Tierney, University of Southern California), the movie explores the problem of college access faced by first generation and low-income students – and how their success has major implications for the future of our state and our nation.

POST-SCREENING DISCUSSION: Panelists will include Mark Cueva (City of Houston), Michele Bobadilla (University Crossroads, Dallas), Maria Fernandez (San Antonio Education Partnership) and Bob Wimpleberg (All Kids Alliance)

This event is FREE and open to the public.



Complimentary light hors d'oeuvres and beverages will be available starting at 5:00 p.m. at reception on the Main Street Porch and Alice Pratt Brown Garden.

Theater doors open at 5:30 p.m., and the movie starts at 6 p.m. in the Museum's Brown Auditorium.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to construction at the Muesum, please enter the Law Building through the east entrance, off Main Street. Complimentary parking is available in the surface lot directly across from the Law Building on Bissonnet
