Paul Castro Superintendent, A+UP Charter School. As an educator, Paul is committed to building schools that care about each child, help them to become their best selves, and meet their personal unlimited potential. A+UP is where Paul’s passion for blending personal development meets his drive to achieve academic growth for all kids. In his 26-year career, he has taught high school English, been the principal of four schools in Houston ISD, and worked at KIPP Houston as head of schools. Three of his HISD schools earned 'Recognized' status from the state. The fourth was a school that had failed for 5 years. Paul and his team were able to improve the academic achievement enough to get the school turned around in one year.
