Congratulations to Education Grant Winner (18/20), Samantha Santos at Woodstone Elementary School - North East ISD! 🙌

Mrs. Santos's dream of Accessible Literacy for All came true as she purchased reading pens for her students. These devices scan & read text aloud, which allows for growth in literacy, comprehension, and confidence! 🤗📖🖊️

🎓✨ Celebrating a Historic Milestone at CAST Teach High School ✨🎓

This year marks a truly special moment: the inaugural graduating class of CAST Teach is preparing to walk across the stage! We were honored to be part of their Legacy Ceremony, celebrating the hard work, passion, and bright futures of these trailblazing seniors.

We proudly awarded five scholarships to outstanding students, helping support their next chapter in education and beyond. 🙌

As an organization founded by educators, investing in students isn’t just something we do; it’s who we are. Our roots in education continue to guide our commitment to empowering future leaders, especially those pursuing careers that will shape classrooms, communities, and generations to come. 🤝

Supporting CAST Teach High School is a natural extension of that mission. This innovative program is developing the next generation of educators, and we are proud to stand alongside them as they inspire, lead, and make a lasting impact. ✏️ 📚 🍎 🏫

Congratulations to the Class of 2026, you are making history, and we can’t wait to see all that you accomplish! 🌟

Congratulations to Education Grant Winner (14/20), Michelle Cortez at La Vernia ISD Primary School in La Vernia ISD! 🙌

She purchased materials for all eleven first-grade classes to participate in their Annual First-Grade Financial Market! Each class used its allotted funds to create a product to sell and advertise.

The student consumers earned their shopping money and used their reasoning skills to make purchases within their budget. These amazing first-graders gained entrepreneurship, marketing, and budgeting skills all in one innovative idea! 🏬 🛒 💵
