It is a classical and Christian K-12 private school that pursues doing all things with excellence to the glory of God.
Educators are dedicated to a Christ-centered worldview and to the Geneva mission, locking arms with parents to provide a rigorous and time-tested education. The award-winning and accredited academics, athletics and arts programs uphold the classical ideal by teaching students to recognize what is good, true and beautiful in every endeavor. Educators teach from a Christ-centered worldview — everything students learn and do is evaluated according to the standard of God’s word. Geneva graduates enter the world well-spoken and uniquely equipped to lead as servants, scholars, athletes and artists in their individual contests. Located on 51 beautiful acres in Boerne, the school provides a place for all students to be known, foster a small-town roll-upyour-sleeves style of family volunteerism to get things done and cultivate an outward-focused community that actively loves its neighbors both inside and outside the school. Geneva is a welcoming, tight-knit community of people who trust and invest in each other with grace and grit. The school was formed in 1998 and began offering classes in 1999 to 13 students in kindergarten, first and third grade. The first senior class of 19 students graduated in May 2011. Today, Geneva serves about 700 students in grades K-12. INFORMATION: Address: 113 Cascade Caverns Road, Boerne Main phone: 830-755-6101 Website: www.genevaschooltx.org
