SHERMAN, Tex. - Another new school is officially opening its doors in Sherman.

The Success Center for Learning held their ribbon cutting Thursday.

Four local Chambers of Commerce were there to celebrate, since the center will serve all of Texoma.

Owner and Executive Director Ben Scholl says the center will offer educational resources to students who need help with school, as well as those who want to learn at a faster pace.

"We're really pleased to be here in Sherman. I've been an educator for many years and it’s been a dream of mine to do this. I’m really excited to serve the students in Sherman in a way this center will allow me to do."

The center will also offer SAT and ACT prep classes.
