Former New York Giant Byron Williams motivates the All-Pro Football Camp attendees.

LEWISVILLE, Texas – August 6, 2019 – Rains tried to wash out the All-Pro Football Camp on Saturday, August, 3 but more than 50 middle and high schoolers, came out despite the conditions to train with former Dallas Cowboy Greg Ellis, former New York Giant Byron Williams, and other NFL greats for the day.

iSchool? of Lewisville, a ResponsiveEd® school, proved to be a more than adequate venue as the indoor gym was utilized for agility drills before the wet weather cleared and the football skills portion of the camp could commence on the outdoor field.

“I was very impressed with the facilities at iSchool of Lewisville,” says Head Coach Byron Williams. “It’s great to see that this school is dedicated to an athletic program where students can participate in a variety of sports alongside their academic curriculum.”

In addition to Williams and Ellis, the All-Pro Football Camp coaching staff consisted of former athletes Cliff Odom, George Cumby, Larry Mallory, Roosevelt Collins, Cory Procter, Alfred Allison, Charmeachealle Moore, Jun Anderson, and Romby Bryant. 

“We had a great turnout and we’re excited about all the students that came out,” continues Williams. “We talked about responsibility, the importance of education, and the importance of giving back. Each one of the former NFL players on the coaching staff has something to give and talk about as it relates to the students, reminding them that dreams do come true.”

All-Pro Football Camp coaching staff award players who worked exceptionally hard with trophies.

The one-day football camp was a free event hosted by iSchool of Lewisville and open to all local athletes in 6-12 grade. The school has two campuses in Lewisville, one dedicated to STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) the other is P-TECH (Pathways to Technology Early College High School) focused.

Traci earned the opportunity to represent the process technology department at a recent scholarship donor event.

Self-motivation and independence to choose the path that is best for you are important qualities of a successful Premier High School graduate. Traci Vandlandingham knew that her path was to follow in her dad’s footsteps into the refinery and manufacturing industry. She is proud to be graduating from the process technology program at Lee College in the fall of 2020 and feels prepared to become an operator or process technician.

The unit Traci has been training in while at Lee College.

“No matter how big your dreams are, they’re never out of reach,” says Traci. Her dreams are big and she knows her education was the key to a brighter future. Traci plans to gain an internship at Huntsman Corporation, an American multinational manufacturer and marketer of chemical products for consumers and industrial customers. Hoping to be hired following her internship, she wants to use that experience to eventually work for ExxonMobil, an oil and gas corporation headquartered in Irving, Texas. “Nothing is impossible.”

Traci says that, while at Premier High School, teachers constantly encouraged her to go above and beyond and ensured her that she had the skills to graduate. Even staying late to tutor her, teacher Ashly Howard was dedicated to supporting Traci and her dreams.

“If you’d told me I would be where I am today, I would have laughed and brushed it off. But the opportunities are endless,” says Traci. “Don’t sell yourself short, chase your dreams and live out loud.”
