Home of the Unicorns, Olympia Elementary School was established in 1980. Located on the far northeast side of San Antonio at 8439 Athenian Drive, the school serves children of armed forces members stationed at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph Air Force base and residents of the Universal City suburb.
Olympia Elementary School serves pre-K through fifth grade. Recent student enrollment was about 400, and class sizes tend to be smaller than the state average. To promote wellness and learning, a free breakfast program was started in 2019. The school offers classes for students who require special education and promotes early literacy programs to help children become strong readers.
The school also has a bevy of extracurricular activities, including art, yoga, gardening, STEM coding and Legos clubs, and UIL Music Memory and spelling competitions. Teachers and administrators work to cultivate a learning environment that sets students up for both success in and out of the classroom. The school emphasizes respect, responsibility and restorative practices to help students become leaders.
