High School
The St. Stephen’s high school, established in 1998, provides both a college-preparatory and Montessori environment for the students. The high school focuses on developing a student’s intelligence, social life, and overall wellness through rigorous curricular requirements.
High school activities are designed to develop students' communication and critical thinking skills. Students are challenged to meet deadlines based on individual academic ability, building self-confidence.
Students are encouraged to respect others by listening and understanding another student’s opinion and then learning more regarding their opinion through friendly debate. The school instills the understanding, respect, and appreciation for cultural and personal differences. In addition, the community is encouraged to share and discuss their cultural background and personal beliefs in relation to the world and life.
St. Stephen's competes in the Texas Christian Athletic League, and the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools, in flag football, soccer, tennis, and volleyball. Every student is eligible to participate in the school’s athletics programs, and all students are encouraged to participate in at least one sport during.
