Sam Houston High School was placed on the San Antonio Independent School District's closure list in 2009 after years of being rated academically unacceptable by state standards and steadily declining enrollment. The school was granted a reprieve after a community uproar. Armed with a new principal and a renewed spirit to survive, the school was given the opportunity to turn itself around. ***
Milli Zepeda, 17, almost nine months pregnant, waits with her class for instructions on where to go from a substitute teacher on April 22, 2010. Zepeda attended school until the day before she went into labor, one week later.
