Sherman Just Landed Big Money for STEM 🚀
Here’s some news worth paying attention to if you’re raising kids in Texoma or thinking about where you want to plant roots: Sherman and Denison schools just received funding from the Texas Instruments Foundation through its Educate Texas initiative to expand STEM learning.
• 🧪 Project-based learning and makerspaces — more hands-on math and science, less textbook-only instruction
• 🚁 Career-focused courses — think construction, culinary arts, and even drone programs for younger students
• 🎓 Industry-recognized certifications — kids graduating with real, usable credentials, not just a diploma
This is a big deal for Texoma. When local students have access to real career pathways before they even graduate, that’s a signal about where this community is headed. Growing STEM investment tends to follow growing local economies, and vice versa.I’d love to know: what career-focused classes would you want to see offered locally? Reply and let me know, I read every one. 😊

Business Spotlight
This week’s Business Spotlight is on 903 Brewers! 🍻
Founded in 2013 by Jeremy and Natalie Roberts, 903 Brewers has been pouring award-winning beer for our community out of downtown Sherman ever since. Their Sasquatch Imperial Chocolate Milk Stout even brought home silver at the Great American Beer Festival, and their Kilt Switch Scotch Ale took bronze a few years later. They’ve built out a full kitchen too, now serving smash burgers, wood-fired Neapolitan pizza, loaded fries, and more, so it’s a real dinner spot now, not just a place to grab a pint. Whether you’re stopping in for trivia night, bringing the family for burgers and beer, or just want a good meal with good people, 903 Brewers is proof that Sherman knows how to do community right.
📍 221 W Houston St, Sherman, TXt
