Every child is unique and so is Augustine Hills School.
We cater to children who want to learn but struggle to do that in a traditional classroom environment.
Does your child need a four-day week for school? Do they suffer from anxiety or depression? Does your child need a safe, drug-free place to learn? Does your child have the ability to work at a faster pace? Would greater 1-on-1 engagement help your student to learn? Augustine Hills is unique in its approach.
We approach education in a whole new way, challenging your child to redefine the very definition of what "school" can be. With an unprecedented teacher-to-student ratio of 1:1 for all courses, we offer proven teaching and testing methods that will enable your child to truly learn.
