Over a hundred incoming Aggie Freshman and their families came to learn about becoming an Aggie family. We had a great speaker from Texas A&M, Kathleen Speed, who talked to the students about transitioning from high school to college.
We also had an information fair where Aggie families got to talk to the sponsors to get more information about and support for life as an Aggie.
