History
San Francisco Nativity Academy of Houston is a scholarship-based independent private Christian pre-kindergarten 3 through 8th grade school serving exclusively low-income students and families of all faiths and cultures through a challenging, progressive curriculum, personalized attention, extended days, and a longer school year. We believe that providing these students with a quality education infused with the Gospel will best prepare these students for high school, college and for life as they break the cycle of poverty.
San Francisco Nativity Academy is committed to provide a transformative program to educate the whole child -- intellectually, spiritually, physically and emotionally. Additionally, the school recognizes the parent as the primary educator and creates a partnership that engages the families in their child’s education. The school includes the families of our students by integrating volunteer hours, parent education classes, and a signed commitment contract supporting their child’s education.
San Francisco Nativity Academy of Houston opened August 15th of 2016 with 20 students in PreK3. An additional grade will be added each year until the 8th grade level is reached. Full enrollment will be attained in 2026 and the first San Francisco Nativity Academy Students will graduate in June 2027

Original Logo
The logo for San Francisco Nativity was created by Laura Behar and Daniela Simpson. The cross resembles a Tau Cross while the “F” in the cross creates a form resembling the Franciscan garb. The large cross signifies the importance of Christ in all aspects of the school and reinforces that the school is explicitly faith-based.
