There's a group of young women in Dallas who've been to tea with a potential First Lady. When they attend leadership conferences, they stride confidently up to fellow attendees and introduce themselves.

Reflections on the Irma Rangel Students' Summer Study Abroad in Italy

Extraordinary Women in Exceptional Roles
3/21/2007

Irma Rangel held its second "Extraordinary Women in Exceptional Roles". Women shared their career successes and challenges with 6th through 10th grades in 50 minute sessions throughout the day. Classroom discussion allowed these extraordinary women to share with our young ladies 6th through 9th, in a relaxed atmosphere, about middle/high school/ college preparations, their career path, and the utilization of language arts, mathematics, science, technology, and fine arts in their future careers.

A Living Legend luncheon was held to honor Lee and Sally Posey, founders of the Foundation for the Education of Young Women.
