The St. Austin School is an independent private school serving grades Pre-K through 8th grade. The St. Austin School firmly holds to the Catholic conviction that parents are the first and most enduring educators of their children and that families are a privileged school in which children learn Christian virtues and establish the practice of the Catholic Faith. (CF.CCC 2223 ff.) The St. Austin School endeavors to extend this family environment so that children may 'increase in wisdom, and in stature, and in favor with God and man.' (St. Luke 2:52) The school admits boys and girls as day students in grades Pre-K through 8. It offers a classical program of primary education from the intellectual and spiritual wealth of the Catholic Faith. The school year runs from August through May, and the school day is in session from 8:30 AM until 3:15 PM Monday through Friday.
