San Antonio

Seven ACE teachers, three second-year and four first-year, serving at five different schools in the Archdiocese of San Antonio: Holy Cross of San Antonio, St. Mary Magdalen, St. John Berchmans School, St. Paul Catholic, and Blessed Sacrament School. The San Antonio community lives no more than ten minutes from both Holy Cross and St. Paul, and is just a quick drive from downtown San Antonio.

What is unique about your community?

ACE San Antonio is the largest community in the ACE program. Some might be overwhelmed by the thought of living with seven other people, but we love it! Living with so many people brings a vibrant energy to the house, provides so much support, and you can never have too many friends in a new city!
