On November 8, 2019, San Antonio area Owls set a new record for the most students to attend a face-to-face gathering at iUniversity Prep. The event was hosted at the Alamo and held close to 60 students and family members. We were guided by Mr. Hamrick, who was dressed up and acting as William Barrett Travis. Our group was so large that strangers started trickling in to join the tour. They even decided to pose in most of our photos. This function was part of a new club here at iUP: the Austin/San Antonio Meet-Up club.
It all started when Mr. Carter and I had a vision. We saw the desperate need for school functions in South Texas. As a resident of San Antonio, I found it extremely difficult to travel to Dallas. So, when Mr. Carter said he’d be willing to travel to my neck of the woods every semester to host these events, I was thrilled. We’ve clearly had a tremendous turn-out, and of course, we have a blast. The best part is, it’s never too late to join!

We’d like as many students as possible to be involved in this club. If you’re interested, please complete the following:
