John Webster, Head of School since 1985, points out two areas of emphasis which have resulted in San Antonio Academy's success:

• Family atmosphere:  The Academy fosters a sense of family that helps boys develop a strong self-image.  Students learn that it is awesome to be honest, kind, and hard-working.
• Strong program:  Committed teachers, small classes and an accelerated academic program prepare boys for success in life.

"Our program works.  The Academy is successful because it has never wavered from its commitment to develop character and leadership and to provide incredible personal attention to our students."
