Links to Surveys for Cognia Self-Assessment Review
As you read in your parent letter sent by email, during the 2024-25 school year our schools will engage in a self-assessment review that demonstrates that all our diocesan schools are engaged in on-going attention to and evaluation of the learning environment that addresses areas of excellence and challenge as well as areas of needed improvement. Most importantly the process will assess the program and culture of our schools in terms of their distinctive Catholic mission as described in the National Standards and Benchmarks for Catholic Elementary and Secondary Schools.
A major component of this process is to solicit comments, ideas, and opinions from our stakeholders – parents, teachers, administrators, students, and community members.
Please use the links below to complete the two surveys that correspond to your child’s grade. Thank you for your interest and willingness to share your ideas.

What Do Our Families Say?
“A great school for military families! We moved here from GA and the teachers at Augustinian did such a great job and put in extra time after school with my kids to make sure they were where they needed to be academically. A very family friendly environment that has allowed my children to thrive spiritually, socially and academically. Best school we’ve been to in the 5 states we’ve lived in.”
“We had the most wonderful two years at Augustinian Academy. We are a military family that moves every two to three years. The biggest stress of the moves is finding our next school. Choosing Augustinian Academy for our boys, ages 10 and 12, was the best move we ever made. The quality of education was leaps and bounds above any school we have attended. My sons are academically way ahead of their classmates in their new PA schools. The support for the military community that comes from the school is genuine and consistent. It was extremely difficult for our family to leave this amazing school when it was time for our next move”
