TPC Group Awards Academic Scholarships to 12 High School Graduates
HOUSTON (Monday, June 3, 2024) – TPC Group recently announced the recipients of this year’s Mark of Excellence Scholarship Program at a luncheon held on May 22 in Houston. The Company’s Mark of Excellence Scholarship Program recognizes high school seniors planning to attend a four-year or two-year university or college following graduation. Since 2006, TPC Group has awarded more than $1.1 million in academic scholarships to graduating high school seniors in southeast Texas.
TPC Group’s Mark of Excellence Scholarship is awarded to students graduating from Cesar E. Chavez High School, in Houston’s East End and from Port Neches-Groves High School, in Port Neches, Texas and plan to pursue a degree in engineering, chemistry or environmental science at an accredited four-year college or university, or an Associate of Applied Science Degree in process, instrument, analyzer or electrical technology at an accredited two-year institution.
TPC Group’s Sons and Daughters Program is open to all graduating seniors with a mother or father employed by the Company.
In addition, TPC Group supports the Genesys Works program by providing internship opportunities for high school students in the field of information technology and engineering. These student interns, upon graduation from high school and acceptance into a two or four-year program at an accredited college or university, receive a one-time, $2,500 scholarship.
“’The Mark of Excellence Scholarship Program is a testament to our commitment to supporting the academic and professional growth of young students in our community,” said TPC Group Vice President, Communications and Public Affairs, Sara Cronin. “TPC Group’s Mark of Excellence Scholarship Program is one of the many ways we seek to give back to our community, support our employees and partner with our local schools to facilitate a qualified, future workforce.” This year, 12 scholarships were awarded.

Utilizing 3-1-1 to Report Issues
Residents may act as extra eyes and ears on the streets, and soon you’ll be able to report a pothole, a malfunctioning traffic light, or a drainage problem while you’re out and about. Houston 311 has launched a new smartphone app that makes reporting issues like these easier than ever. The app uses GPS to identify your location and also allows you to snap a photo to add to your service request. The new app allows for reports to be automatically routed to city departments for resolutions.
You can still alert the City of Houston of issues by dialing 3-1-1 or 713-837-0311 of potential problems in your community. Houstonians can also access this helpful service via an e-mail to 311@HoustonTX.gov. A self Service Request (SR) form is available online at www.houston311.org. Once you’ve reported a problem please follow up with the District E office by emailing your case number and information on the issue to the District E office at districte@houstontx.gov to help make sure the problem is addressed in a timely manner.
