San Pasqual Academy

I was a 4 year student at SPA. I loved it so much. Every child should have the experience of bordering school. I got life long friends. Faculty and Staff that loved all the kids like their own. I'm still in touch with some of the faculty and staff to this day.

I have not been to this Academy, but just finished watching a TV show called "Turning Point" on BYU TV featuring your school. I was in the foster care system for 4.5 years in IL, and have always felt like our foster care system was broken. However, after learning about this amazing, progressive school, I have hope! I'm now 60 years old, but the experiences of my childhood both before and during my foster care have shaped me in ways both positive and negative. I aged out of the system with no idea what to do or what my options in life were. I heard from my case worker a grand total of 2 times in those 4+ years. I floundered a bit, but pulled together a good life with my own amazing family, through hard work, lots of therapy and a good husband. Im encouraged and in awe of the support and stability these kids are receiving. This is an inspired program and I commend all who work so hard to make it work! Thank you for caring about the kids who often fall through the cracks.

Class of 2004:I agree change in many places is needed.
I would like to be the change I'd like to see.
