🥳Our 10 Year Anniversary week was a blast! Not only did we celebrated our birthday, we also want to highlight a few of our programs that we completed this week:

Starting off we wrapped up our 2025-2026 R20 Premier season with a 3 day event at the Scholastic Esports Championship hosted here at the Boeing Center at Tech port!

Next up, we hosted our 2026 SA Smart Finals and crowned our Middle School Bracket Champions,
Basis San Antonio - Shavano Campus | Scrappy - Affordable AI Recycling,
& our High School Bracket Champions,
Samuel Clemens Highschool Team | Eliminate AI-Assisted Emergency Dispatch!

Students in our Boeing STEM Academy Graduated by completing STEM coursework and engineering design mentorship from Boeing employees, which they were each awarded with a laptop!

Completing this week, we capped off with having us delivering our 21DISCOVERY™ program. The full experience includes a museum tour, scavenger hunt, and hands-on STEM lesson for up to 50 students.

Thank you for celebrating with us!

Many thanks to the San Antonio Junior Forum for the gift supporting our field trips and curriculum for students! With their support, SAMSAT is expanding our fleet of educational robots. The new robots will support AI-based recognition and sensing, and provide new coding opportunities for students.

In other words, we have a new tool in our belt to INSPIRE students, ENGAGE them in hands-on STEM learning, and support them down STEM education and career PATHWAYS. Thank you SAJF!
