Capital Improvement Projects (CIP)

In May 2017, Bexar County voters approved a $450 million capital improvement bond for the Alamo Colleges, with $83 million allocated for SAC to make necessary improvements to current buildings and add new facilities. These transformations will serve the SAC and San Antonio communities by providing a brand-new environment enriched with state-of-the-art facilities. The Tino & Millie Duran Welcome Center within the renovated Fletcher Administration Building now assists new and returning students with the enrollment process, financial aid, and testing. The state-of-the-art SAC Science Building will provide advanced lab, teaching and learning space. The new SAC Early Childhood Center will provide childcare services for SAC students, faculty and staff and also serve as a learning lab for SAC’s early childhood studies program. The John L. Santikos Micronaut Center, the first of its kind in the nation, will offer STEAM-focused activities (science, technology, engineering, art and math) for elementary school children. And finally, the First Responders Academy will provide an enhanced and improved training and educational facility for cadets in the law enforcement and regional fire academies.
