What is Pathway to Teaching?

Pathway to Teaching is an effort to bring bright, dedicated students into the world of teaching and into the area public schools through a collaboration of Austin High School, Houston Community College - Southeast, Eastside Campus (HCC-SE Eastside) and the University of Houston-Clear Lake. These three Gulf Coast institutions are working together to provide a step-by-step program of community college preparation, university graduation, and school district experience, to train future teachers for careers in education in the southeast Houston area.

Coursework at HCC-SE Eastside will include a comprehensive general education curriculum. HCC-SE Eastside offers a variety of classes, both day and evening, to fit your schedule. After completing the necessary course work at HCC-SE Eastside, you will transfer a minimum of 54 semester hours of lower level coursework to University of Houston-Clear Lake. While at UHCL, you will continue to take courses at the junior and senior level to complete your education course work and earn a college degree. University of Houston-Clear Lake is located near NASA's Johnson Space Center, about fifteen miles south of downtown Houston. The faculty and staff offer support and personal attention. The campus provides a friendly, caring and safe environment.

While students attend college at both campuses, Houston Independent School District (HISD) will provide HCC-SE Eastside and UHCL qualified students, opportunities for employment and experiential learning. HISD is always looking for qualified, dedicated teachers, and your involvement in this program can be the first step in finding a teaching job in the local area.
As a student in Pathway to Teaching, you will be provided with a variety of special services, including advising assistance, a mentor program, employment opportunities, career counseling, scholarship opportunities, and other programs to make your journey to becoming a teacher a positive, rewarding and successful experience. As new programs are developed, services for Pathway to Teaching students continue to grow. Austin High School, Houston Community College - Southeast, Eastside Campus are committed to providing southeast Houston area students with every opportunity to make the dream of becoming a teacher a reality.
