ASPIRE

The ASPIRE Partnership is a new & exciting educational partnership to empower South Bexar County schools, districts & their families to create a better life for themselves while strengthening the community. Unlike the limitations on students and schools in the past, The ASPIRE Partnership provides every student an affordable university degree and career readiness close to home.

The ASPIRE Partnership is creating a dynamic network of collective impact to build a brighter future for South Bexar County from enhancing the school-to-college pipeline to teacher preparedness to educational programs and support to accessible programs and services for teachers, students and families.

Overview:

A first-of-its-kind collaborative effort between a public university and seven South Bexar County ISDs (East Central, Edgewood, Harlandale, Somerset, South San Antonio, Southside and Southwest), the ASPIRE partnership focuses on developing educational programs and services to support existing programs to develop teachers with an affirmation for the community where they live, work and learn; curriculum development for a dynamically-changing world; and accessible programs that offer specialized services for children with special needs across south Bexar County and south San Antonio.
