Jan 29, 2018 1:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

The After-School All-Stars North Texas' Third Annual Rising Stars Luncheon that was such a hit last year with Dak Prescott has scored another super-duper athlete — Jose Altuve! Please, oh, … [Read more...] about JUST IN: After-School All-Stars North Texas Hits A Home Run With 2017 World Series MVP Jose Altuve For Third Annual Rising Stars Luncheon

Dec 26, 2017 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

According to After-School All-Stars Advocate Gina Betts, “After-School All-Stars (ASAS) is the largest national organization, with a strong local presence, that specifically focuses on serving middle school age students.

Dallas Cowboys Dak Prescott And Joanna Hernandez Demonstrated The Importance Of After-School All-Stars For Middle Schoolers

Jul 4, 2017 1:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Settle back: This post is a long one, but it's worth it. If Dante Alighieri was updating his "Purgatorio," he surely would have added Middle School to his Divine Comedy. Even the most blemish-free runway model recoils when recalling those days between elementary and high school. Teachers serving time in classrooms during this tenure should receive combat pay. Kids on their … [Read more...] about Dallas Cowboys Dak Prescott And Joanna Hernandez Demonstrated The Importance Of After-School All-Stars For Middle Schoolers

May 31, 2017 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Grovel Alert: 2nd Annual Rising Stars Luncheon

May 15, 2017 11:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

Unlike former Dallas Police Chief David Brown, Dallas Cowboys Quarterback Dak Prescott hasn’t exactly been making the speaking rounds.  Perhaps that’s why Wednesday’s “2nd Annual Rising Stars Luncheon” benefiting After-School All-Stars North Texas is nearing SRO status at the Dallas Country Club.

For that reason, After-School All-Stars North Texas Party Co-Chair Kersten Rettig and hubby Clark Knippers had to accommodate Michael’s schedule. So, there’s been a change of date taken place. What’s … [Read more...] about Change Of Plans: After-School, All-Stars Party
