Our Purpose and Principles

At the heart of our organization lies a commitment to purpose, guided by a clear mission, an inspiring vision for the future, and core values that define who we are and drive everything we do.

Fort Sam Houston Elementary School was originally constructed as an 18-room building with funds provided by Public Law 815. The school opened in September 1952 with an enrollment of 385 students in grades one to six. Today, the school houses approximately 750 students in Early Childhood through fifth grade. The school building has since been renovated and expanded.

We Need You - Volunteer Today!

Volunteers are a vital part of our school community and offer many advantages to student learning and development. We enjoy having strong parental involvement on our campus and encourage you to volunteer your talents. For the safety and security of our scholars, we must have a Volunteer Background Check completed prior to service. We encourage all interested members to complete the application prior to the school year or activity to ensure sufficient time for processing and approval.
