About the company

St. Augustine Preparatory Academy

View

St. Augustine Preparatory Academy is a private, non-denominational Christian K-12 school in Milwaukee that provides access to private education primarily through state voucher programs for students from minority and low-income backgrounds. It operates a four-pillar model—faith, family, academics, and athletics/arts—with personalized instruction and specialized classrooms, supported by modern technology and substantial facilities. It differentiates itself through its large, campus-scale approach (the largest single-campus K4-12 in Wisconsin plus an upcoming second campus), explicit Christian ethos for teachers, and strong performance metrics such as a five-star DPI rating. Its goal is to close the educational achievement gap by expanding access, capacity, and leadership development for underrepresented communities through continued philanthropic support and multi-campus growth.

What believers are saying

  • North Campus raised over $22 million by January 2026, signaling strong donor momentum.
