Overview
Saint Helen Catholic School is committed to educating the whole person to see with Christ's eyes.
Saint Helen Catholic School is dedicated to serving the diverse community of Georgetown and the Diocese of Austin.
It is our goal to nurture the whole child with a program of academic excellence in a Catholic environment.
We believe that parents and guardians are the primary educators of their children and that it is the responsibility of the Catholic Community of Saint Helen to assist in this endeavor.
The family, the school, and the parish community work together modeling, mentoring, and instructing our children to develop into compassionate, intelligent, and responsible citizens.
Grace Academy is a vibrant K-12 school in Georgetown, TX where God's word permeates every aspect of education and campus life.
We seek to raise up a generation of young people who have a genuine love of learning and a deep understanding of the lordship and grace of Jesus Christ. In keeping with the biblical goal to do all things heartily, as to the Lord (Colossians 3:23), Grace Academy encourages excellence in all areas, especially academics. As students progress from kindergarten through 12th grade, they grow not only in knowledge but also in the habits, dispositions, and skills of lifelong learners that will enable them to be successful in their future endeavors.
