Produced by the Miss Texas Organization, the Miss Texas competition exists for the purpose of providing personal and professional opportunities for young Texas women and promoting their voice in culture, politics and community. The competition was founded in 1936 by a group of civic-minded citizens concerned about higher education. The first Miss Texas Scholarship Pageant has evolved into what is recognized today as one of the best organized and well managed of all state pageants.  For additional information please visit www.misstexas.org.

 

The contestants competed in the following categories: private interview, lifestyle and fitness, talent, evening gown and onstage question.  Miss Texas 2014 will compete for Miss America held in Atlantic City in September which will be broadcast on ABC.   Miss Texas' Outstanding Teen 2014 will compete for the title of Miss America's Outstanding Teen in August in Orlando, Florida. 

 

The Miss America Organization is the largest donor of scholarship assistance for young women, awarding over $45 million annually.  Miss Texas 2014 will receive a $10,000 cash scholarship and the use of an Infiniti from Grubbs Infiniti during her reign.  In addition to competing for scholarships, each contestant actively participates in raising funds for the Children's Miracle Network, which is the national platform of Miss America.
