Castleberry ISD offers the PACE Saturday program for students ten Saturdays during the spring semester starting in January. The district’s dedicated team of educators and administrators are opening campus for accelerated instruction from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM (AVC, CE, JJA, IMMS) or 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM (CHS) on the identified Saturdays for students who are invited to attend for additional support or are required to receive additional instruction.
PACE Saturdays are invitation only to ensure limited class sizes. Students are provided personalized and accelerated instruction. It is imperative the district and parents work together to ensure students have every opportunity to accelerate their learning. Please contact your child's campus for additional information.
