Our family and children have been involved at St Louis Catholic School since 2013. We have been grateful for the loving and supportive, faith-filled environment in which our children have been learning. Over the years, we have seen many changes - some good, some not so good. However, at the heart of the school, the dedication to creating a supportive learning environment has not changed. We love the weekly school Mass at which our children have the opportunity to serve.Our children have all had different learning styles, strengths, and needs. St Louis staff members address these differences and do their best to accommodate them.We look forward to several more years as parents at St. Louis and the beautiful community.

St. Louis is a rising star in the Central Austin area. It has been selected two years in a row as the Best Private School in Austin by the Austin American Statesman. It is truly a school where tradition meets innovation. Your child will receive innovated instruction in a traditional Faith based setting. Children are encouraged to think and be creative while being guided to make moral decisions. The school has been around for 60+ years, but manages to stay relevant.
