A Celebration of Culture and Cuisine: Fourth Grade Spanish Culinary Fair

The annual 8th Grade Championship Debate brought together the top student speakers in the Class of 2026 for an afternoon of thoughtful discussion, persuasive argument, and confident public speaking. This year’s debate centered on the topic, “In recent decades, the quality of life for children and teens in the United States has improved significantly.”

Ellison Hall was filled with pride, joy, and heartfelt expression as San Antonio Academy’s 2nd-grade boys took the stage for this year’s Poetry Extravaganza, a tradition that celebrates both creativity and confidence.

Each spring, San Antonio Academy celebrates one of its most vibrant traditions: the annual school-wide art show, a joyful showcase of creativity, confidence, and student expression.This year’s exhibition once again transformed the McCombs Gymnasium into a gallery, where artwork from boys across multiple grade levels filled the room with color and imagination. Families, faculty, and friends gathered to admire a wide range of pieces, each reflecting the unique talents and growing artistic skills of our young artists.

San Antonio Academy welcomed families for “A Day at the Museum: Portraits of Leadership,” where 3rd graders presented a living museum that connected local history with personal growth. Through thoughtful presentations, the boys reflected on how influential figures have shaped their understanding of The Academy's four core pillars: Scholarship, Leadership, Integrity, and Brotherhood.

Each gallery highlighted voices that have defined San Antonio and The Academy, while giving our boys the opportunity to speak with confidence and purpose. Events like this reflect SAA’s commitment to developing strong public speakers and young men prepared to lead.
