🎉🍎 Major Milestone for Our Inaugural BAS Graduates! 🍎🎉

We are incredibly proud to share that two of our inaugural BAS in Education graduates, Patzy Cruz and Bianca Gaviria, have successfully passed all of their certification exams! 🎓👏

While they will continue their journey through their internship year to become fully certified teachers, passing these exams is one of the biggest and most challenging hurdles—and they did it! 💪

These exams are rigorous and require deep content knowledge, instructional skill, and perseverance. Patzy and Bianca rose to the challenge and proved that they are prepared, capable, and ready to lead in the classroom.

They are powerful examples of what is possible through the BAS in Education program at San Jacinto College—and a reminder to all of our current and future students:
✨ If they can do it, so can you. ✨

We also extend a heartfelt thank you to our partners:
🤝 The Texas Institute for Teacher Education (TXITE)
🎓 The Chesmar Foundation Scholarship
Your support helped make this achievement possible.

👏 Join us in celebrating Patzy and Bianca as they take this major step toward becoming fully certified teachers! The future of education is bright.
