Overview

DAEP Secondary is a school that provides a disciplinary alternative education program (DAEP). We believe in restorative discipline as a means of teaching lifelong learning skills to students. Our mission is to instill in students a positive attitude toward school that exemplifies honor, dignity and respect for self and others. Our service-learning class and counseling sessions provide students the opportunity to practice positive social/behavioral skills to ensure success in the classroom and their daily lives. These programs help students explore expanded career opportunities, develop self-esteem and teach social skills in an environment of healthy competition. Our motto is “Be the Shepherd.” Our students are expected to serve as role models, mentors and leaders for others.

Grades: 6-12

School History

The name of this alternative campus for high school students was changed in June 2006 to memorialize a Lanier High School graduate who became the first Hispanic pediatrician at Robert B. Green Hospital. Formerly the Alamo Achievement Center, the school relocated to 1112 S. Zarzamora St. – originally the site of David Barkley Elementary – in the fall of 2005.

The achievement center previously was housed at two other former SAISD schools:

  • 1995 to 2005 – 1811 S. Laredo St., formerly Johnson Elementary.
  • 1986 to 1995 – 237 W. Travis St., formerly Sam Houston Elementary.

History of 1112 S. Zarzamora St. From 1919 when it opened - until 1921 – the site was known as School #32 until named for David Barkley, a San Antonian who lost his life in World War I and posthumously was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. However, a 1925 school directory lists the name as “Barclay,” a spelling which continued to be used interchangeably with Barkley in numerous SAISD documents and daily newspaper accounts through the mid-1960s. During the 2002-03 school year, the Barkley site was used for SAISD administrative offices and its students transferred to the new school built on the site of Ruiz Elementary.
