We focus on preparing students with the skills necessary for post-secondary success and measure our progress here using the ACT as one crucial metric. The ACT is a clear indicator of skill development in the areas of English, Math, Reading, and Science and predicts future success in college courses. Aug Prep students have consistently shown strong growth by over +4.5 from 9th to 11th grade on their composite scores. 
 
 
Families that do not qualify for a state scholarship (Choice or Special Needs Scholarship) have the option to pay tuition to attend St. Augustine Preparatory Academy, if space permits.
 
Tuition for 2023-2024 is:

The majority of our families pick up their students, others walk or bike and a few ride the city bus. Aug Prep does not offer transportation. 
The Ramirez family committed to investing in a new school on Milwaukee's South Side as a push to improve Wisconsin education. Improving the education and experiences of students has always been a centerpiece of the philanthropic efforts of Gus Ramirez and his family. This outreach stems from Gus's experiences as a child and his recognition and belief that education serves as the foundation of our economic growth in the country.
 
The school opened officially in 2017 and we are moving the academic needle and having a tremendously positive impact on students, not only academically but as we develop them to be future leaders. Several years ago we set out to create a bold new school that was based on the belief that no matter where you were born, or the ZIP code you grow up in, all children are entitled to an excellent education. In our sixth year, Aug Prep is serving grades K4-12 and is proud to education and support nearly 1,900 students.
 
Our vision is for our students to be known by their strength of character, courage, intellect, impactful contributions and their faith. We provide exceptional  Christian education and an uninterrupted K4-12 experience to develop our students to be tomorrow's leaders. The foundation of our model is our four pillars - faith, family, academics and athletics/arts. By prioritizing all four pillars, we holistically educate our students through mind, body, and soul.
