Thank you to the group for their hard work during at Mitchell Lake Audubon Center! They removed an impressive 268.5 lbs of invasive Guinea grass. A big shoutout to all the volunteers who have been helping over the past few months. Thanks to their efforts, this area will be transformed into a beautiful pollinator space. Stay tuned!

: We welcomed KSAT RJ Marquez from KSAT 12 & KSAT.com on The April Monterrosa Show with Adam Ace!

RJ is an anchor/reporter for KSAT’s Good Morning San Antonio. Since joining KSAT in 2010, he’s covered everything from breaking news and Fiesta to Spurs championships and high school sports.

It was fun getting to hear his story and to have him be the one being interviewed for a change!

Proud to serve the San Antonio community, RJ continues to be a voice that represents the culture and spirit that make our city great.

University Health’s award-winning SaludArte: Art of Healing program is putting the finishing touches on the new Vida Clinic, set to open in just a few weeks. 🏥

🎨 San Antonio artist and Southside native Louis Vega Treviño designed the stunning two-story exterior tile mural, while artist Monika Bravo brought her creative touch to the interior enhancements now being installed.

Thank you, Futuro Education SA, for the opportunity to attend the Voices for Education Forum, where leaders from across San Antonio’s education and political landscape came together for important conversations about the future of our students.

We heard powerful testimonies from youth and parent advocates, reviewed critical data from the summer deep-canvassing effort, and gained valuable insights from a dynamic panel discussion. The message was clear: it’s on all of us, through our unique roles and collective responsibility, to tackle literacy challenges, student mental health, a lack of teacher support, and chronic absenteeism.

Special thanks to moderator Jaden Edison (The Texas Tribune) and panelists SAISD Board President Alicia Sebastian, Jubilee Academies Superintendent Dr. Atikah Shemshack, Futuro Parent Advocate Janet Garcia, and D1 Councilwoman Dr. Sukh Kaur for their leadership and perspectives.
