Enrollment in the Castleberry Collegiate Academy is by application only. Current 8th or 9th grade students need to fully complete the application and meet deadlines for recruitment and registration.
As a designated Early College High School, the Texas Education Agency requires recruitment efforts to target the following areas:
Castleberry Collegiate Academy recruitment and enrollment processes shall identify, recruit, and enroll the subpopulations of at-risk students (as defined by PEIMS), including, but not limited to, students who are of limited English proficiency, students with disabilities, or students who have failed a state administered assessment. In addition to those who are at risk as defined by PEIMS, Castleberry Collegiate Academy will also recruit those that are historically underrepresented in college courses (e.g., first generation college goers and students of low socioeconomic status).
Students who do not meet the target recruitment may still apply and get accepted into the school.

-
Be a current 8th or 9th grade student
