  • 2019 Annual Report from the Board Chair & CEO
    2019 Annual Report FROM THE Board Chair & CEO This year brought out the G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker and Leader)™ in all of us at Girl Scouts of Southwest Texas. We enjoyed many wonderful successes and a few challenges as well—all of which served to strengthen our foundation and shed light on how supportive our community really is. Despite funding challenges, our board, volunteers, supporters and staff joined forces and together we raised enough capital to continue giving girls the opportunity to lead, to be confident and serve their communities. Our Girl Scouts blossom into young leaders, entrepreneurs and role models who lead service projects and work towards making the world a better place. In 2019, thirty-five young women received the prestigious Girl Scout Gold Award and served the San Antonio community and surrounding areas for more than 2,800 hours helping the elderly, hospitals, babies, homeless and families in need. None of this would be possible without the firm commitment of our most powerful and valuable resource—our volunteers. Your dedication to our future leaders is inspiring. The impact you have on the lives of our girls cannot be easily measured, but we know is working because every day we see Girl Scout alums breaking barriers, opening doors for the next generation of change-makers and making our world a better place. Thank you for trusting us to help shape your girls and we look forward to supporting you as you make new memories.

    BRAND STANDARDS GUIDE BRAND STANDARDS GUIDE | updated 5/2017 1 LOGO FAMILY A consistent, unified, professional image is crucial to any marketing effort. When we present such an image to the communities we serve, each individual college’s marketing efforts reinforce those of its sister colleges and the district as a whole. And our logo family is central to creating this unified image. The Alamo Colleges District logo family reflects our unity and shared purpose while still celebrating the uniqueness of each individual college. The mark of the logo takes advantage of the equity the district enjoys in the familiar Alamo shape. The logotype is set in Sabon Bold, a serif typeface whose classic letterforms immediately communicate prestige.

  • Please Be Advised That This Is a Living Document and Is Constantly Being Updated As Our Knowledge and Understanding of the COVID-19 Virus Continues to Evolve
    Please be advised that this is a living document and is constantly being updated as our knowledge and understanding of the COVID-19 virus continues to evolve. Last updated: 5/6/2021 Return to Campus Plan Since we first pivoted to remote working and teaching last year, the Alamo Colleges District students, faculty and staff have done an outstanding job of adjusting to a new normal as our communities and the world face the ever-changing circumstances created by the COVID-19 pandemic. While the situation and guidelines continue to evolve, our commitment to student success has remained steadfast. The Alamo Colleges District has been operating at Level 5 “Stay Home, Work Safe” for the Spring 2021 semester. When the Alamo Colleges District leadership convened to assess COVID-19 plans for Fall 2021, it was decided that the Alamo Colleges would move to Level 1, with up to 75% of employees and students at all locations. As we have from the beginning, the City of San Antonio and Bexar County Health Department recommendations were taken into consideration in making this determination. As we enter another phase of remote and in-person learning, we commend our faculty, staff and students for their hard work in transitioning to remote learning and the completion of several semesters. We are confident that they will be successful in this next transition to a mix of remote and face-to-face classes as well. We also are proud of the way our staff and faculty have ensured that our students have been provided a wealth of resources to succeed in a remote environment and for the many ways you have supported one another through difficult times.
