    "கல் தோன்றி மண் தோன்றாக் காலத்தே முன் தோன்றிய மூத்த குடிமக்களால் உருவானது நம் தமிழ் மொழி. உலகிலேயே பழமையான மொழிகளில் நம் தமிழ் மொழியும் ஒன்று என்பதில் தமிழர்களாகிய நாம் பெருமை கொள்வோம். தமிழ் கற்போம். தமிழ் வளர்ப்போம்."

    SA Tamil School Inc. is a 100% volunteer based non-profit tax-exempt accredited organization. San Antonio Tamil School management has decided to follow the curriculum provided by Texas Tamil Academy - TTA Textbooks (https://texastamilacademy.org/textbooks) starting from this Academic 2023-24 school year instead of the American Tamil Academy (https://www.americantamilacademy.org) Textbooks. We have been working closely with Houston Tamil School to adapt and incorporate Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) as described in Texas Education Agency (TEA - https://tea.texas.gov/academics/subject-areas/languages-other-than-english) to obtain High School Credit for Language Other Than English (LOTE) for our kids who complete 8 Levels of instruction. Textbooks released by TTA are approved by Houston Independent School District (HISD) that allows the students to apply for LOTE credit.
