Southminster School is a private, Christian school serving children 18 months old through 5th grade.
The school was founded in 1991 by Southminster Presbyterian Church as an early childhood program. Over the years, the quality of our school and its loving Christian environment prompted our school families to encourage Southminster Presbyterian Church to expand its program to include an elementary school.
Southminster School has assembled an experienced and dedicated team of highly-qualified educators who guide each student's growth and development in order to maximize the individual student's full potential.
The combination of academic excellence, spiritual development, community building experiences, and leadership opportunities are what make Southminster School so unique.

School Reviews
| 5 We were considering private school for our children and after talking to another parent we decided to give South Minster School a tour. Two years later and we could not have made a better decision for our family. My elementary aged children are surrounded by a school that provides an amazing atmosphere daily, wonderful teacher support and bonus Chapel two times per week and updates from the Pastor and Head of school. My kids get into the car each day excited to tell me about their day and academically are learning more than what a public school can provide with the smaller classroom sizes and one-on-one time with the teachers! - Posted by Parent - Courtney Moore |
| 5 Several friends recommended Southminster and after touring 8 preschools in Fort Bend, we decided Southminster was the best fit for our family.Reflecting on the last 6 years we have been a part of the Southminster family, I am truly grateful for the loving and nurturing environment our son has been blessed to be a part of. Our son will be in fourth grade this year and he loves going to school every day. We feel good knowing he getting a solid foundation built on biblical principles.The children are amazing at this school ~ so kind and caring. Southminster truly is like family.A Christian education, small class size, great teachers and a safe environment make Southminster the perfect choice for our family! - Posted by Parent - Jill B. |
