St. Andrew's Episcopal School (Austin, TX)

Our teacher exchange with Prince Royal's College in Chiang Mai, Thailand continues! After welcoming three PRC educators to St. Andrew's in April, three of our own are now in Thailand. Lani West (MS Art), Jae Lappinga (LS Art), and Olivia Havel (MS Choir) are spending two weeks teaching and collaborating with PRC students, and we can't wait to hear more about their time in Chiang Mai.

School is out, camp is in! Camp registration is open through June 26 - visit sasaustin.org/student-life/summer-camp-at-st-andrews-2026 ☀️

Last night, members of our Alumni Board gathered to celebrate a successful year of connection, engagement, and service to the St. Andrew's community. We are grateful for their dedication and leadership, fostering meaningful relationships between alumni and St. Andrew's.

Looking forward to another impactful year - after a restful summer break!

Wow - congratulations to Baron B. '32 on winning the national championship in Model United Nations for his grade level! 🥇

After winning several awards at the regional Model UN competition in Houston in March, Baron and his teammates, including Braun B. '32 and James B. '32, recently traveled to the International Academic Competitions National Championships in Orlando to compete alongside 150 Model UN students.

We could not be prouder of this group and Baron's remarkable accomplishment!

Congratulations to the class of 2026🎓🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Yesterday, families, friends, and faculty were delighted to celebrate the accomplishments of our newest alumni at their commencement ceremony (the first to be held in Highlander Hall)! Thank you to senior speaker Ben G. and faculty speaker Mr. Messner for their meaningful words to the graduates and their guests. We cannot wait to see what the future holds for the remarkable members of this class.

Finals week calls for some extra support (of the fluffy, cuddly, and sometimes spiky variety). Thank you Divine Canines and Tiny Tails to You for the very cute study break!

At the 8th grade commencement ceremony, we celebrated the achievements, special qualities, and hard work of the Class of 2030. Throughout their time in the Middle School, these students have embodied the four pillars in every way. We are so proud of this class and we're thrilled to see all they will accomplish during their high school years. Congratulations, Class of 2030!

When Andrew Forrester spent four years teaching English at St. Andrew's, he had his students reading great stories. Turns out, he was writing one too! Earlier this month, a group of his former SAS students and colleagues headed to BookPeople to celebrate the launch of his debut novel, How The Story Goes - a story about grief, writing, love, and how to finish something that matters. Congratulations, Dr. Forrester! What an accomplishment - we are so proud of you.

How The Story Goes is available now! Visit andrewforresterbooks.com. 📚
