Original Research by School Decision on School Aged Parenting Program
The School Aged Parenting Program is listed as an alternative school within Northside ISD in San Antonio, but it is currently inactive. The school was located in the Bandera Road area on the city's north side.
Because the school is not operational, state testing data, enrollment figures, graduation rates, and most other performance metrics are not available. The program's grade band is listed as middle school, though the data does not specify whether it served all middle grades or a subset.
Alternative schools serve specific student populations, often those facing non-traditional circumstances. A program bearing this name would typically serve pregnant and parenting teens, providing academic instruction alongside support services tailored to their circumstances. The closure of this particular program means families in Northside ISD seeking such services would need to look elsewhere, either within the district if other programs exist or in the broader San Antonio area.
San Antonio itself is a rapidly growing major city anchored by healthcare, military, and technology sectors. Housing in the Bandera Road zip code area is moderate in cost relative to national benchmarks, and the neighborhood sits in a suburban context on the city's north side, part of an expanding metropolitan region. Northside ISD serves parts of the greater San Antonio area and covers multiple neighborhoods as the city continues to expand.
For families navigating pregnancy and parenting during high school, the inactivity of this program represents an important gap. A parent may want to reach out directly to Northside ISD to ask whether alternative placement options, support services, or partnerships with other districts or organizations exist to serve parenting students in the area.
