There will be times for students when all the academic education in the world will not give them the answers they need.
Such answers are found only through faith. Catholic school education seeks to guide students to these answers in an atmosphere that is wholly unique. The Diocese of Austin provides an outstanding product to our students. Our faculty and staff nurture and sustain the God-given gifts that each student possesses. With the support of the diocesan Strategic Plan for Catholic Schools, our schools work diligently to ensure that the opportunity of a Catholic school education is open to all.
Nationally, the Catholic Church educates 2.1 million elementary and high school students every day.
While this education costs the Church $10 billion annually – and saves the American taxpayer $18 billion per year – Catholic school graduates are going on to university studies at the rate of 92%. In the Diocese of Austin, the graduates of our eight Catholic high schools exceed the national average for attending college.
The curriculum in our Catholic schools is designed to prepare students for college and beyond.
Serving Pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, the Catholic schools provide a Christ-centered education in which Catholic identity permeates the entire curriculum, encouraging our students to reach their fullest capacity (teaching the whole child) – spiritually, academically, physically and socially.
Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Austin are dedicated to the physical and emotional safety of each of our students, staff, and families
Every school in the Diocese of Austin is committed to:
The ongoing training and requirements of the Ethics and Integrity in Ministry program for all adult faculty, staff, and volunteers
A partnership that includes onboarding and ongoing faculty and staff training with The I Love U Guys Foundation’s Standard Response Protocol for emergency situations
An anonymous reporting system available for students at each campus with 24/7 monitoring capabilities
Each member of our Catholic Schools community in the Diocese of Austin is a gift created by God in His image and likeness, and we are committed to being faithful stewards of each other.
