About the Learning Program

CAST Teach High School is San Antonio’s first school dedicated to careers in education. Created in partnership with Northside ISD, the CAST Schools Network, and the University of Texas at San Antonio’s College of Education and Human Development, the school rallies multiple industries to create future educators that will transform our community. The school works alongside students and families to identify and nurture their passions, while providing them with key skills relevant to careers in education, such as teaching, counseling, library studies, and coaching.

CAST Teach High School not only ensures students have a strong foundation in educational practices, but it also provides experiences in schools – side by side with mentor educators, coaches, counselors, and librarians.
