San Antonio Academy
Class of 2024 Gift
Class of 2024 Gift
The class of 2024 gifted The Academy with a beautifully crafted flag stand made by SAA alumnus and former coach Bobby Zander '72. This is a meaningful and sentimental piece, as it was made using salvaged wood from The Academy's old gym, which was removed in 2020. It is also engraved with a dedication to our beloved and soon-to-be-retired Mr. Barry Bradley. The stand is located in the lobby of the Bondurant Field House and Fine Arts Building.

Many thanks to the 8th grade families who raised funds throughout the year to make this gift possible, as well as to Bobby Zander for creating such a beautiful addition that will be used for years to come!

Anson Howard, Class of 2002, joined us as the Alumni Monday speaker on August 26, 2024. In a heartfelt speech at his alma mater, he shared the significance and impact of The Academy’s enduring motto: "Be honest, be kind, be the best you can be." that has guided students like himself and now his son, Fitz '34, for 138 years.
