Episode 46 - From PSJA to Stanford to Changing Lives: Cecilia Corral’s Journey

Listen to an inspiring conversation with 2008 PSJA High School Salutatorian and PSJA alumna Cecilia Corral, Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer of CareMessage, the nation’s largest patient engagement platform serving low-income populations.  After earning her Associate Degree in Engineering through PSJA ISD’s Early College Program, Cecilia continued her academic journey at Stanford University, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in Product Design Engineering. Her work and leadership in healthcare innovation have since earned national recognition, including being named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 Healthcare list.  In this special episode, Cecilia reflects on how her experiences at PSJA ISD helped shape her path, the lessons she learned growing up in a low-income immigrant household, and how purpose-driven innovation led her to create meaningful impact through health technology. We will also hear about some of her latest work and the continued efforts to expand access and support for communities across the country. Her story is a powerful example of how education, opportunity, and determination can transform lives and communities.

Episode 42 - Don’t Fall Behind: Summer Dual Credit, Early College & P-TECH Explained

Welcome back to the PSJA Tri-City Talks Podcast. On this episode, we talk with Executive Officer for College Readiness, Dr. Linda Uribe, to break down what students and families need to know right now.  The conversation focuses on summer dual credit opportunities for 9th through 11th grade students, including the three available sessions and why taking advantage of these courses can accelerate college progress and reduce future costs. Dr. Uribe also explains additional summer options like the TSIA Summer Bridge and how these programs prepare students for college-level expectations.  They also take a closer look at the continued success of PSJA ISD’s Early College Program, including over $96 million saved in tuition since 2013, strong performance highlighted in the TAPR report, and projections for upcoming graduates.  The episode wraps with updates on Early College Week highlights, new P-TECH designations, and how the district is strengthening workforce readiness pathways for students.  If you want a clear picture of where PSJA is headed and how students can get ahead, this is worth your time.
