CARDENAS CENTER

CARDENAS CENTER is a Title I public prekindergarten school that is part of the EDGEWOOD ISD school district, located in SAN ANTONIO, TX with about 365 students. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 20 teachers, CARDENAS CENTER has a student/teacher ratio of about 18:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The CARDENAS CENTER, located at 3300 Ruiz St in San Antonio, is a specialized educational facility operated by the Edgewood Independent School District (EISD). Unlike a traditional K-12 campus, the center serves as a hub for the district’s alternative and specialized programs. It is designed to provide focused academic support and behavioral interventions, ensuring that students who may face challenges in a conventional classroom setting have a structured environment that caters to their specific learning or personal needs.

By offering a smaller, more intimate learning environment, the CARDENAS CENTER aims to help students meet district graduation requirements while fostering social and emotional growth. The facility aligns with the broader mission of Edgewood ISD by prioritizing individualized attention and student success, providing a pathway for learners to stay on track toward their academic goals.
