About Austin Private Schools

Austin's private school landscape offers families an alternative to the public district system, with options ranging from Episcopal college prep to classical Christian education, Waldorf pedagogy, and Montessori methods. The city's top private schools compete nationally for academic outcomes, with St. Stephen's Episcopal consistently ranking among the best boarding schools in the South and St. Andrew's Episcopal producing graduates who attend Ivy League and top-25 universities at high rates. Private school families in Austin tend to cluster in central and west Austin neighborhoods where commute access to multiple campuses is practical. Tuition ranges from $12,000 at Brentwood Christian to $39,700 day/$74,400 boarding at St. Stephen's.

Why Families Choose Private Schools

Families choose Austin private schools for specialized programs unavailable in public districts: St. Stephen's Tennis and Soccer Academies, St. Andrew's global travel programs, Regents' classical education model, Austin Waldorf's arts-integrated curriculum, or Griffin's 160-student creative college prep. Others choose private for religious formation or for class sizes below 15 that public schools can't match. Some families split between public elementary and private upper school to get the best of both systems.

Real Estate in Private Schools

Private school families have more geographic flexibility than public school families since attendance isn't tied to address. That said, most luxury private school families concentrate in central and west Austin for commute reasons. Homes within a 15-minute drive of St. Stephen's command attention from relocating families who've already decided on the school before choosing a neighborhood.

“When families are considering private schools, the conversation shifts from geography to philosophy - Montessori, classical, faith-based, or college-prep. We help families match the right school with the right neighborhood.”
— Cara Keenan, Keenan Group at Compass
