Holy Family Catholic School

About

Holy Family Catholic School is located in the northwest part of Austin, Texas on a beautiful 20-acre campus within the Texas Hill Country.  We serve over 500 students from preschool through the eighth grade.  Our school is a regional school that holds a close association to seven area parishes, offering priority enrollment to qualified students.  Holy Family Catholic School works with parents to nurture the growth of the whole child – spiritually, intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically.  Our school is Catholic – promoting the teachings of the Church and inclusive of diverse cultures and socioeconomic backgrounds.  We seek to promote the development of these values by:

• Fostering a commitment to know, love and serve God and one another (spiritual)

• Encouraging each child to attain his or her fullest potential (intellectual)

• Guiding students to become conscientious, successful members of a global community (social)

• Respecting and celebrating each child’s individuality (emotional)

• Promoting a positive attitude towards a healthy lifestyle (physical)

Our school offers a curriculum stressing a challenging standards-driven academic program that seeks to prepare graduates for the most rigorous courses available in the high schools of their choice; a strong religious education program that equips graduates with a moral compass to last through their adolescent years and beyond; a climate of mutual respect and responsibility that fosters in graduates the ability and the will to be the servant leaders of tomorrow, and the educational programs and activities which promote self-respect and positive lifelong attitudes toward personal health and fitness.  Holy Family holds firm to our four core values which define our identity and culture and are the fundamental beliefs that guide the daily life of the school.  The core values, which are reflected in the goals, are Catholic identity, faith formation, academic excellence and stewardship.
