🌟 Student of the Week: Bryan Alvarez 🌟

Meet Bryan, one of our seniors, who is turning his love for animals into a future career! 🐢🐠

Bryan has finished his academics and has applied for an internship at the Gladys Porter Zoo, a big step toward his dream of becoming a marine biologist. 🌊

He’s now working on his capstone research project, mentored by our science teacher, Ms. Vianey Hinojosa. 🔬

Bryan is kind and generous, and he’s always looking out for others. We’re proud to help him reach his goals and can’t wait to see where his passion takes him! 💙

🔨 Night of Discovery at YouthBuild Brownsville
Tuesday, November 3 · 4:30–6:30 PM · 815 Arthur St.

Brownsville, come see what our young people are building.

At YouthBuild Brownsville, students don’t just sit in class. They frame structures, strike an arc in the welding shop, cut on CNC machines, and care for the neighborhood they call home. They earn a high school education, and they also earn industry certifications and real skills that lead to high-demand, high-paying careers.

Why families choose YouthBuild Brownsville:

Tuition-free, scholarship-based workforce high school
Hands-on trades training in construction, welding, and CNC/advanced manufacturing

Real pathways after graduation, including college, careers, apprenticeships, and the military

This is a community school. Our students build for Brownsville. They tend community gardens, construct projects side by side with mentors, and create art that reflects who we are as a border city. When you join YouthBuild, you join a familia that shows up for each other.

At Night of Discovery you’ll:

Tour our trades spaces and see student projects up close
Meet our teachers, trainers, and staff
Hear from current students about their experience
Get your enrollment questions answered on the spot

⚠️ Seating is limited, and so are our spots. Enrollment for the 2027–2028 school year is open now, and our classes are intentionally small so every student gets real attention. Once seats fill, they’re gone. Don’t wait.

Bring your student, bring your questions, and bring your neighbors. Your future starts here. 🧡💙

Jersey/Sports Day, YouthBuild style! ⚽🏈⚾

Today our students and staff repped their favorite teams, from the Cowboys to Club América to the Yankees, and we gathered in the place that brings us together sometimes: our community garden. 🌱

We may cheer for different teams, but at YouthBuild Brownsville we're one team building something bigger: our futures and our community.

Measure twice, cut once, and break a few stereotypes along the way. 💪🪚

Our young women are on the build site every week: reading a tape, marking cuts, running a circular saw, and holding each other up. Women make up a small share of the construction workforce, and at YouthBuild Brownsville we’re working to change that, one board at a time.

The trades need skilled people and we are ready.
