For the third consecutive season, the Houston Dynamo have launched their Score at School program, presented by StatoilHydro, which allows children to experience high-quality soccer first-hand after they complete a series of classroom goals.
The program, which already has more than 5,000 children registered, runs from March through May. Score at School is a free program that schools and teachers can use as an incentive to help motivate their students. Once students have reached three goals established for them, academic or otherwise, they are eligible to receive a complimentary ticket to a Houston Dynamo game. Registration is ongoing and runs through February 28.
A total of seven school districts - Spring Branch, New Caney, Conroe, Fort Bend, Katy, Houston, and Glena Park - have committed to participating in this year's edition. For more information on the Dynamo Score at School program, please contact Marisela R. Vasquez at 713-276-7526 or mrodriguez@houstondynamo.com.
