School Notes

  • Our mission is to prepare students for success in college and beyond as our students learn how to think - not what to think.
  • Critical and analytical thinking skills are honed with our unique 1:1 Literature program, modeled on the British Tutorial System used at Oxford.
  • Our teachers provide a strong academic curriculum and support as their students gain confidence and a sense of responsibility.
  • Degreed, knowledgeable teachers - 68% with advanced degrees - are flexible, creative, and encouraging.
  • Our program emphasizes self-expression, self-worth, self-motivation, positive interpersonal skills, and cooperation, not competition.
  • We give our students organizational and study skills, preparation for college, and lifetime, independent learning skills.
  • Founded in 1973, Huntington-Surrey School is a long-established Austin educational institution with a purpose of preparing every student for college admission while honoring each student as an individual.
  • We pride ourselves in producing young adult graduates who know how to think and how to learn, with a desire to keep learning throughout their lives. Individual attention and a personalized educational experience come from our low student-to-teacher ratios: typically 8-1 in core classes and 1-1 in our literature program based on the Oxford tutorial method.
  • We take college preparation seriously, proven by 100% college acceptance of our graduates. But we aren`t just about the books. Huntington-Surrey is a family of teachers, administrators, students, and parents with a like-minded approach to building a better basis for college-and for life. Life is an open-book test. We plant strong roots for a lifetime of learning and growth. That's why our motto is College Prep -- With Heart.
