St. Augustine Preparatory Academy
School Overview
St. Augustine Preparatory Academy (Aug Prep) is a K4-12 multi-denominational Christian School on Milwaukee’s Southside that opened in the summer of 2017. Our school is a student-centered environment where young learners take ownership of their education not only in academics, but also physical health, creativity, and faith. Our graduates will go on to achieve their highest potential and make our city, and ultimately the world, a better place. Aug Prep currently enrolls about 1,400 students, with our first class of seniors graduating in spring 2021.

We believe...
God loves and seeks a personal relationship with all of His children
All of God’s children deserve the opportunity to achieve their full potential - mind, body & soul
Active engagement by parents in their students’ education is vital
Excellence is not a goal, but rather a way of learning and living
Mental and physical fitness are complementary to each other and foundational for student success
Service to our community and country is a sacred responsibility
