San Antonio ISD
San Antonio, Texas
The alliance between San Antonio ISD and Harlandale ISD resulted in the GU2 initiative, uniting students, parents, and teachers and providing critical services for college readiness in the community. College visits to the University of Texas at San Antonio enhance college readiness and increase college-going rates by raising awareness of postsecondary options, preparation, financing, and admissions. Activities include Saturday academic camps and overnight student leadership retreats. GEAR UP parents are given their first glimpse of the process required for collegiate success through parent involvement and education nights hosted by the Family Service Association of San Antonio. The Leadership Team (a GEAR UP initiative consisting of teachers, site coordinators, and counselors) monitors professional development and learning to create and sustain advancements in instructional practice and academic leadership.
