The San Antonio Spurs will host their third-annual Back to School Bash at the Frost Bank Center. From 4-7 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 8, students, parents, and K-12 educators can access free school supplies, vaccinations, and eye check-ups. The event will also offer dental screenings, haircuts, and booths with information on school enrollment, extracurricular activities, and mental health support.
Kara Allen, Spurs Sports and Entertainment’s chief people, impact and belonging officer, emphasized the importance of the event: “Empowering teachers and families with essential resources is vital to student success in and beyond the classroom. We are honored to connect with our community and share resources for students, caregivers, and teachers who will be equipped to start the new school year confident and prepared to grow together.”
To attend, participants must register in advance. Those seeking free haircuts should register separately for a time slot. Students must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, and educators need to present a valid teacher ID upon entry.
Clay Jones, Frost Bank Regional President, expressed the bank’s pride in supporting the event, stating, “We’re always happy to extend a helping hand to the Spurs with efforts like this.”
