A Letter from Chancellor LeBlanc

At Tarrant County College, extraordinary things happen because a community first embraced a shared purpose. I see these extraordinary things every day.

A student earns a scholarship and gets to stay enrolled. An employer helps shape a program that points eager learners to in-demand careers. Donors invest in students they’ll never meet, knowing that education at its core transforms. These moments and so many more change lives in ways that extend greatly well our campuses.

This annual report celebrates the compassion and the partnerships that make such stories possible. For many students, ability doesn’t limit their success, but affordability does. Your support of the Tarrant County College Foundation removes financial barriers and opens doors that might otherwise remain closed.

Just as important, it sends a message: Students, we believe in you. Your dreams matter. Your future deserves our investment.

Results radiate far and wide. Every graduate strengthens a family. Every skilled professional empowers our workforce. Every innovation, fresh solution and challenge met boosts regional prosperity. That’s the power of connecting education with opportunity.

Through collaborations with employers such as American Airlines, SGS Studios, Autobahn, SpaceX and countless other industry titans, our students are gaining real world experiences that prepare them for meaningful work and service.

Expanding educational opportunities remains central to our mission. This fall we launched our first bachelor’s degree — a Bachelor of Applied Science in early childhood education and teaching — helping address the growing demand for qualified educators. Next spring we expect to introduce an Associate of Applied Science in air traffic control, equipping students with the advanced training needed for one of aviation’s most critical roles.

These achievements reflect more than institutional growth. They demonstrate how philanthropy, education and industry can collectively beckon a brighter future for the businesses and the neighborhoods and the people of North Texas.

Our students have limitless potential. Thank you for seeing it. Your generosity helps fulfill it.
