Private Schools

Not only did HCA help me lay a strong foundation for my children's future, it also changed my life for the better. With an above standard curriculum and smaller class sizes, it's a strong contender for a Top Choice school in the Northeast. My only wish is that every child could have an education like the one they provide at Holmesburg Christian Academy.

Incredible staff, beautiful campus, and exciting vision for this year’s curriculum.

I don't go to Grace Prep but it is a good school I wish I was there with all my friends best in luck to you guys and God bless you never give up telling people about Christ.

This place is amazing! Our kiddos thrive here and we love this school!

Nice crafts and school supply gift shop hidden in the woods of the Austin Waldorf School. Great gift ideas for all ages. The staff is friendly and helpful. Pick up a unique gift while grabbing a quick drink and snack. Price range: $$ to $$$ w/ great sales events.

Not sure how a school could get any better than the PREP! The staff is caring and warm, and my son's teachers are so sweet. The classrooms are clean and are equipped with closed circuit cameras so we check the monitors and see how our son is doing. The school utilizes a system that e-mails pictures of our son doing his activities throughout the day. At the end of the day, they send another link with all of the pictures, along with a report of how much he ate and drank, and when he had a wet diaper or BM. We really appreciated this system because we felt more connected to our son. The system really opened up that communication gap that we previously felt with an in-home daycare. PREP also utilizes a security system that makes us feel confident knowing that our child is safe and sound at school and that we are the only ones that can check him out. We highly recommend the PREP!

We chose Bannockburn Christian Academy (BCA) back in 2011 because we wanted a non-denominational Christian education for our son. We were looking for a school with a small class size and a curriculum that wasn’t just teaching kids to pass a standardized test. What we found was more than a great education but a loving, family-like environment. The love of Christ is evident in all the staff. All of my son’s teachers have been accessible and respond quickly to email. Communication from them and the principal is well-done using email, Shutterfly website, take-home papers and Facebook. If I can’t make it in time to pick up my son he is put into an after school program (Fit Kids) on campus and no advance reservation is required. It provides great peace of mind when I am running late. Several days a week there are after-school clubs like Spanish, Mandarine, chess, soccer, etc. Tuition is one of the least expensive in SW Austin for a private Christian education. Even the location is convenient. I highly recommend BCA. We are very blessed to be a part of this family.

This is our first year with the Dripping Springs Christian Academy and so far we love it. Our daughter is advanced in her studies and DSCA allows her to move at her accelerated pace and challenge her where she is, rather than a "one size fits all" curriculum. They offer an a-la-carte class options, which is ideal for our community that has a large amount of homeschooling families - they can supplement their learning one class at a time or more. The school recognizes the parent's authority on their child and works in partnership for the best education for the children, while keeping in mind that they are, as their logo says, training ambassadors for God's calling in their lives. My daughter is learning 1 or more bible verses (and really involved, longer and deeper verses) per week, as well as having the curriculum immersed in a biblical perspective. Her teacher and I are able to communicate daily if needed, and the class sizes are smaller, which my child (and we) love. Several grades are together in classes so my Kindergartener is able to talk with and hangout with older kiddos and have an example to look to, and with the high quality they are have, I know that is a good example. I have been thrilled with the education, professionalism, the teachers' knowledge and the Head of School at DSCA and would love to continue my child, and my younger daughter, there in the future.
