The original entry deadline was March 10. The Comptroller decided to extend the deadline, noting that March is a busy month for many children, because of Spring Break and other activities. The elementary school student who comes up with the best name for the diploma will win a class party hosted by the new mascot. The winner will be announced on April 11. I encourage all Texas elementary school children to use their imagination and creativity to give the Texas Tomorrow Fund's diploma mascot a name.
Nothing is more important than education.
Entries should be submitted on a postcard. Entries should include the suggested name for the mascot, the child's name, home address and home phone number. Also include the child's grade, school name and school address. Entries must be postmarked by March 31 and mailed to Texas Tomorrow Fund, Name the Mascot, P.O. Box 13407, Austin, TX 78711-3407. The Texas Tomorrow Fund allows families to prepay tomorrow's college tuition and required fees at today's prices.
