The Atonement Academy has been named the Third Best K-12 Private School and the Sixth Best Private High School in the San Antonio area for 2019, according to Niche. Each school is ranked comprehensively based on six categories including Academics, Teachers, Clubs & Activities, Diversity, College Prep and Sports.
“We at The Atonement Academy are honored to be recognized as the No. 3 Best K-12 Private School and No. 6 Best Private High School in the San Antonio area,” said James F. Growden, headmaster for The Atonement Academy. “We are the only Catholic classical school in all of San Antonio. Classical education focuses on inspiring students to read more and logically think about what they read and training them how to effectively communicate that new knowledge. We are not outcome-based, but rather focused on forming critical thinkers and problem solvers which prepares students for the real world they will face as adults.”

The Atonement Academy has significantly improved in each category from previous years as a result of the new administration’s vision and mission for the school.
“At The Atonement Academy, our faculty is eager to invest themselves fully to form our students into joyful disciples of Christ who think critically and can express their ideas articulately in oral presentation and written word,” said Growden. At TAA, Christ illuminates each and every discipline studied by our students, whether they encounter truth, goodness and beauty when learning, calculus, philosophy, history, Chemistry, English, Latin, Spanish, music or art.”
The Atonement Academy provides an accredited classical education and unparalleled Catholic culture to boys and girls. With a “Fides et Ratio” (Faith & Reason) motto as a guide, The Atonement Academy’s environment inspires the development of both faith and reason.
