Community program allows teachers to connect career shadowing to classrooms

This summer, a chosen group of San Marcos CISD secondary teachers were given the opportunity to venture outside the classroom, heading into the community as externs for many area businesses, agencies and organizations.

Called the Summer Teacher Externship Program, it is a joint effort by the school district, the San Marcos Chamber of Commerce and Texas Workforce Solutions.

The program is a dynamic collaborative experience that builds lasting community partnerships between San Marcos’ industry and education benefiting businesses, schools, and especially San Marcos’ future workforce - our students.
