Waiting Lists
A waiting list is established once a class is filled. If no space is available at the time you apply, your child will be placed on a waiting list, for a fee of $35. Spaces are filled as they occur, up until the end of January of the current school year. Waiting lists DO NOT carry over from year to year. If you remain on the waiting list and your child does not receive a spot, you must reapply the following school year.

Extended Care
Extended care options are offered at St. Paul’s School; however, this option is not guaranteed and is fully contingent on space due to staffing needs. (Enrollment for extended days opens in August, prior to school beginning.)

Immunizations
As required by the Texas Department of State Health Services, ALL students must have the proper immunizations to be enrolled in St. Paul's School, unless a State Exemption affidavit is provided. However, all up to date immunizations are strongly recommended to keep our school community safe. Immunization records are not required at the time you apply; these are due in August, if your child is enrolled. Please see the link below for required immunizations and more information. If you have any questions, please contact the school office. We appreciate your understanding!
