🏆 Celebrating Our Eagles! 🦅

We recently received awards from last spring’s Tri-Core Foundation Problem-Solving Contest, where our students competed against 20 Catholic schools across Texas!

A special congratulations to Quin, who placed 8th out of 436 seventh graders who participated! 🎉

We’re so proud of all our students who took on the challenge and represented St. Austin so well. Congratulations, Eagles!

Our faculty and staff are at the heart of the culture we cherish at St. Austin. Their dedication, joy, and commitment to our mission pour directly into the students they serve each day.

During the Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Austin Convocation, we were proud to celebrate three members of our St. Austin community who were each recognized for five years of service in Catholic education!

Congratulations to Mrs. Stoval, Ms. Porras, and Ms. Oliva! We are so grateful for the many ways you share your gifts with our students and school community. Here’s to many more years! 🎉

What a week to kick off the new school year! ❤🦅

We started Monday with lunch generously provided by the Knights of Columbus, gathered with our St. Austin Catholic Parish community on Tuesday, welcomed our Eagles back to campus on Wednesday, and ended the week celebrating our first school Mass of the year.

A wonderful week filled with community, faith, and Eagle spirit. Here’s to a great year ahead!

What a day! Today, we welcomed our new and returning Eagles back to campus, and the excitement could be felt throughout the school! From the energy in the gym at Morning Assembly to reconnecting with friends, teachers, and families, it was the perfect way to kick off a new school year.

Parents connected, our teachers and staff felt the love, and our students jumped right back into their school-day routines.

We’re excited for all that this year will bring and can’t wait to watch our Eagles learn, grow, and SOAR!

☀️ Summer is halfway gone! Like many of you, we've been taking some time to reset, relax and recharge—but we're back and excited to share more from our St. Austin community!

We're kicking things off by celebrating an exciting accomplishment from rising 8th grader Evan, who won an essay contest hosted by the Paulist Fathers in celebration of America's 250th anniversary! 🇺🇸

Students were invited to reflect on the question: "How does your Catholic faith shape the way you live in the United States, and how does living in the United States shape the way you practice your Catholic faith?"

Congratulations, Evan! We're so proud to see one of our Eagles sharing his faith, voice and perspective in such a meaningful way. ❤️🦅
