TASC builds leaders who positively impact our schools, our communities, our state, and our nation through leadership development in secondary schools in Texas. We believe in a pow- erful student voice, the journey of leadership, and in building a strong web of support for students and advisors. We know that leadership skills can be learned and enhanced, and we work daily to do just that. Organized in 1937, TASC serves over 1300 member schools by providing opportunities for advisors and student leaders to interact and learn through outstanding programs such as this Annual Conference. DEEPEN YOUR HEART, TEXAS Texas Student Councils always work to serve others and to make our schools a place where stu- dents and staff want to be. This year’s TASC Board of Directors asked TASC members to go beyond, to dig deeper, to truly “deepen” their hearts to identify needs and to meet them, to know their passions, to set goals, and to develop and execute plans to truly make this a better world. The state officer team challenged members to address the world-wide travesty of human traffick- ing through our State Service Project: Deepen Your Heart. Reach Out Your Hand. Student Councils across the state chose to educate, collaborate, activate, and evaluate in efforts to combat modern day slavery. Human trafficking is real. Human trafficking is relevant. Human trafficking is resolvable. A CKNOWLEDGMENTS TASC extends a heartfelt thanks to the following: • Each of the local student council advisors who give generously of their time and energies to make local district, and state activities successful; • The many councils who contributed to the Annual Conference by running for office, running for the Board, serving on committees, and presenting Table Talks; • The adult presenters for sharing their expertise; • Each company who exhibited or advertised with us; • The Arlington Convention and Visitors Bureau for its support and assistance; • Herff Jones for hosting refreshments for advisors, providing rings for the Eddie G. Bull Advisors of the Year, and sponsoring Houston Kraft; • TASC office staff members who worked tirelessly on this conference; • The staff of the Arlington Convention Center, the Sheraton, and the Texas Rangers for their assistance; • Run, Jump, Fly Creative for its guidance and assistance with general session production; • The students and advisors of the state officer schools as well as the elected advisors on the Board of Direc- tors for their sincere interest in TASC and their help throughout the conference and this year; • The U.S. Army for their support of the conference; • Texas High School students, advisors, staff, parents and community members for their vision, their creativ- ity, their efforts, their dedication, and their hospitality in making this conference absolutely outstanding.
