Our Vision
Our 5-Year Plan

Every SAISD student aware, prepared and ready to successfully enter and complete a postsecondary plan that allows them to become contributing members of our community.

The Advanced Academics Department supports the SAISD 5-Year Goals by inviting all students to participate in one or more advanced academics experiences, by providing opportunities for rich and rigorous learning in Advanced Placement, AVID, Dual Credit, GATE, and World Language courses, and by providing enrichment activities that encourage students to explore and apply their academic talents through extracurricular activities.
