By Scholars from the Miles Ahead Scholars (MAS) Program had the incredible opportunity to spend a day immersed in the world of Vitol Oil and Gas, gaining invaluable insights into the industry and envisioning their paths to success in 2035.
The visit to Vitol Oil and Gas was nothing short of inspiring, as scholars delved into the dynamic and innovative environment of one of the leading companies in the energy sector.
At HISD, we asked our students what their expectations are for 2035, a few years after their graduation.
“After graduation I see myself working for a large company like Apple or like Tesla,” said Theron Boutte, senior at Kashmere High School.
MAS is a college preparatory honors program for Black and Latino male students in HISD. MAS is designed to empower young men of color to pursue their dreams and make a positive difference in their lives, schools, and communities.
