Jose Borrego Preparatory Academy is incredibly proud to announce that Mr. Jesus Garza, 8th Grade Science Educator, has been selected as a 2026โ€“2027 Society for Science Advocate! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ‘

The Society for Science selected 100 outstanding educators from across the nation for this prestigious program, which is designed to expand student access to original scientific research and STEM competitions.

Through the program, Advocates receive year-round professional development, mentorship, leadership training, and financial support to help create more opportunities for students to explore science and pursue their own research.

For Mr. Garza, this opportunity is about much more than professional recognition. It is about bringing those opportunities home to Monte Alto and to the students of JBPA.

From rocketry and STEM competitions to astronomy, scientific research, and hands-on inquiry, Mr. Garza continues to work toward creating a culture where our students are encouraged to ask questions, explore ideas, conduct research, and see themselves as future scientists, engineers, and innovators. ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ”ญ๐Ÿงช

We are especially proud that a science educator from our community is part of this nationwide network of teacher leaders dedicated to expanding access to STEM opportunities.

Congratulations, Mr. Garza! ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ‰

Your passion for science and your commitment to our students continue to make a difference. We are excited to see how you bring this experience back to Jose Borrego Preparatory Academy and Monte Alto ISD!

Here is a link for the Advocate map.

Thank you to the amazing Monte Alto High School FFA students for visiting our JBPA 7th graders and providing a wonderful mini lesson on how plants grow! ๐ŸŒฟ
Our students not only learned about the science behind plant growth, but they also had the opportunity to plant their own wildflowers in individual pots to take home and nurture. Thereโ€™s something special about getting your hands in the soil and watching learning come to life.
We are so grateful for community partnerships that inspire curiosity, responsibility, and growthโ€”both in the classroom and beyond. ๐ŸŒธ
