Private Schools

Private schools make up a small but significant component of San Antonio’s educational community. There is a balanced mix of private independent and parochial schools. Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of San Antonio are a significant force in the city. A complete list of Catholic schools can be found on their web site at www.sacatholicschools.org. While most schools are supported by tuition payments or charitable contributions, many offer various forms of financial aid or scholarship programs.
