Who We Are

Founded in 1926, BSA has continually evolved to meet the needs of our community while remaining committed to dignity, compassion, and hope.

Today, our mission extends through our Child Development Center, Por Vida Academy, and family support programs, creating pathways for children to thrive, students to succeed, and families to build brighter futures. As we celebrate our centennial year, we honor the legacy that brought us here while continuing to invest in the next generation of South Side leaders.

Por Vida High School Students- Enrolling Now

Blessed Sacrament Academy —

Nearly 100 Years of Listening, Serving, and Growing

Blessed Sacrament Academy began almost a century ago as a small high school led by the Sisters of the Incarnate Word. As the community’s needs evolved, so did we.

We opened our Child Development Center to provide infants through Pre-K children with a safe, nurturing place to learn, play, and grow. Later, we launched Por Vida Academy to give high school students a second chance — and often their first real opportunity to earn a diploma and shape a hopeful future.

Today, we honor that long tradition of compassion and adaptability. We meet children and families exactly where they are, offering support, stability, and opportunities that help them build brighter futures with dignity and confidence.
