Regents School of Austin is a private, classical, non-denominational Christian school located in Austin, Texas.

Curriculum

The Regents curriculum is loosely based on a classical education model called the Trivium. The Trivium is composed of three stages: grammar, logic, and rhetoric. Grammar school comprises kindergarten through 6th grade, logic is grades 7 and 8 and rhetoric is grades 9 to 12.

In the grammar stage (K - 6) students are taught the building blocks for future subjects, including phonics, Latin, grammar, and math facts. In the logic stage (grades 7 – 8), students learn formal logic. In the final stage, rhetoric (grades 9 - 12), students learn classical rhetoric.

The school names represent their developmental approach to education.

History

Regents was founded in 1887. It originally met at Park Hills Baptist Church before moving to Tarrytown Baptist Church. Regents spent many years meeting in portable buildings in the parking lot at Tarrytown Baptist before moving to a permanent campus in 1899. Regents had its first graduating class in 1903, consisting of two students.

The school has grown to more than 1,000 students.[2]

  • Football
  • Baseball
  • Basketball
  • Cross Country
  • Golf
  • Soccer
