The Former St. Francis Academy Gets a New Life with a School of Choice That Gives Second Chances to at-Risk Kids.
WHAT: Please join us as we celebrate the grand opening of our new San Antonio campus at a new location that is dear to the residents of San Antonio. The former St. Francis Academy is now the new San Antonio Can! High School.
“We are in the right place to not only serve our students, but to be a partner in the community as well,” said Texans Can! President, Richard Marquez. “This campus is so much larger it also will allow us to expand to serve more at-risk students in the San Antonio area.”
The 16.1 acre location not only accommodates our students, but we are able to grow our Early Childhood Development Center (ECDC) which caters to the kids of our kids.
“There are so many wonderful parts to this campus, we now have a full library, gym and even a science lab,” said principal Veronica Hernandez. “We are now able to use the science lab with all of the equipment to do more experiments which help with retention of the science objectives for TAKS, it truly is a wonderful campus.”
WHEN: Thursday, October 5, 2007 10:00 AM
Tours of the campus will follow immediately. Students will be available for interviews as well as San Antonio Can! High School Principal, Superintendent and also the President of Texans Can!
WHERE: San Antonio Can! High School, 1807 Centennial Blvd
