For over 75 years, our school has been a ministry of The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd. Through this partnership, Austin children have had the opportunity to spend their early years supported by a caring, Christian community as they begin their educational journey. The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd serves approximately 3,500 members, comprising 1,300 households.

Our educational philosophy centers around a play-based, character-enriching early childhood programs focused on educating the whole child.
