A School for EVERY DREAM and ANY FUTURE

The idea behind CAST was to expose more students, across our city, to high-wage, fast-growth jobs. We worked with business leaders and school superintendents to identify locations near clusters of industry and in communities where such programs did not exist. 

We built CAST Tech near the downtown Tech district, where they could walk to employer partners like USAA and Frost Bank. Engineering-focused CAST STEM was near the Toyota manufacturing plant and Port San Antonio. CAST Med was the first medically-focused high school on San Antonio’s Southside, next door to UIW’s medical campus. Although UT Health was not close, it recognized the need and was eager to partner. CAST Lead is connected to a web of small businesses and entrepreneurs in the retail, hospitality and e-commerce sectors. Also in our network, downtown, is the Advanced Learning Academy, a pre-K through 12 Academy where students design their own career focus. CAST Teach will open in Northside ISD in partnership with UTSA to build the next generation of educators.
