School Reviews:

  • Recommended October 06,2012 - Two of my children have graduated from St. Paul, and my third one is in his last year. We love St. Paul and the people there. Academic quality is very high, with availability of differentiated instruction for alternate learning styles. Outstanding music program in particular. We will definitely miss it, but my children are very well prepared for the next level.*-Posted by Parent *
  • Recommended October 06,2012 - This school features the small class size and individualized attention my daughter needed to succeed academically from 6th - 8th grade. She is now performing very well academically at Concordia High School here in the Austin area which is a college preparatory school. St. Paul also has a wonderful fine arts program in the way of their choir and band programs which attend performance competitions annually.*-Posted by Parent *
