WATCH STUDENTS IN ACTION
"These types of unique partnerships do not exist everywhere, said Hafedh Azaiez, Round Rock ISD Superintendent. "We are fortunate that Shop LC has partnered with Round Rock ISD to allow young designers to use creativity, and imagination in a hands-on way and see their designs through the production phase. This is truly a well-rounded approach and a school-business partnership at its best."
Michelle Long and Shop LC are being recognized for their collaboration with Round Rock ISD CTE Program known as the Fashion Collective. The pilot program helps students take a deep-dive, hands on approach to the fashion industry. For an entire school year, Shop LC provided guest speakers and insight into the industry production cycle while working closely with educators to ensure alignment to classroom needs. The program finale was a fashion show with the support of Fashion by Texas, Matt Sweeney, followed by a competition. The payoff: top students with winning designs will work with Shop LC merchants to see their designs come to life and air on Shop LC TV. Winners also receive a percentage of sales.
For the 2022-23 school year, Shop LC has plans to continue the program with RRISD and is looking to expand with other area districts and universities.
