Our Mission in Everyday Life

Faith woven into the day 
Through Bible reading, Scripture memory, prayer, and worship, students learn to know God and consider how their faith shapes everyday choices.

A rich feast of learning
Living books, nature study, mathematics, science, history, and the arts invite students to think deeply, ask questions, and delight in God’s world.

Learning to live in community  
Students practice listening, showing kindness, taking responsibility, and extending forgiveness through daily life together.

Serving our neighbors  
Service learning and community partnerships give students opportunities to use their gifts, build relationships, and contribute to the good of our city.

Our Vision – We make a Christ-Centered education accessible to an academically, socioeconomically, and ethnically diverse community in Austin, TX.

“City School is an optimal place for a Christ-centered, holistic Charlotte Mason education. We have loved the small class sizes and incredibly loving and capable teachers. Having our girls in this school is a gift and joy!” – City School Alumni Family
