WHERE DO YOU DO IT
Sam Houston High is a public high school in San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD). Located on the Eastside in ZIP code 78220 it serves students mainly from low-income families. Public tax dollars do not even come close to meeting the needs of students there. We believe that private funds and community-based support can make a huge difference in high-achieving student outcomes. I live in the same ZIP code and am an alumnus of Sam Houston
