School Notes

  • Huntington-Surrey Preparatory School is a long-established Austin educational institution with a purpose of preparing every student for college admission while honoring each student as an individual.
  • https://www.huntingtonsurrey.org/_files/ugd/c25905_b83bdb45bf7745afa308a97df1536d27.pdfWe pride ourselves in producing young adult graduates who know how to learn, with a desire to keep learning throughout their lives. Individual attention and a personalized educational experience come from our low student-to-teacher ratios: typically 8-1 in core classes and 1-1 in our literature program based on the Oxford tutorial method. We take college preparation seriously, proven by our nearly 100% college acceptance of our graduates. But we aren`t just about the books. Huntington-Surrey is a family of teachers, administrators, students, and parents with a like-minded approach to building a better basis for college-and for life. Life is an open-book test. We plant strong roots for a lifetime of learning and growth. That's why our motto is College Prep -- With Heart.
