Campus Visits

Like many things in life, seeing is believing. The best way to see if St. Stephen's in Austin, Texas is right for you is to visit the campus in person. 

We invite you to participate in any of our on campus and virtual visits. Below are opportunities to experience St. Stephen's boarding and day school, explore our academic and extracurricular programs, and learn more about the admission process - then register online. We're looking forward to meeting you soon!

This on campus event is for parents only and will feature administrators, division heads, current parents, and admission officers. Join us in the Dining Hall to learn about strategic plans, academic philosophy and support, activity outside the classroom, and much more.
