Odessa College Unveils Learning by Doing Diploma Program
Odessa College will start a competency based high school diploma program for adults this fall. The plan lets adults earn diplomas from one of three Odessa high schools by demonstrating life skills and passing standardized tests, instead of solely taking the GED. The program targets adults 19 and up, with self paced instruction and a daily class window from 9 to 12 starting September 4.

Log church museum marks Czech Moravian roots in Wesley Texas
In Wesley, Texas a log church now serves as a museum recalling the first Czech Moravian congregation in the state. Rev B E Lacrae began serving in 1888 and decorated the one room structure with colors and lines creating a three dimensional effect before his 1891 hunting accident. Czech refugees settled in Texas from the 150s, many in Wesell, as hand shaped logs were hauled from Galveston in 1866. The old church sits beside a 1963 sanctuary on FM 332, ten miles southwest of Brenham.
