St. Gabriel’s is an independent Catholic school, which means that the school is financially independent of the Diocese of Austin and operates as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Because we are not affiliated with a particular Catholic parish, we are not part of any parish operating budget.
Like most private schools, St. Gabriel’s cannot operate on tuition alone. Our school follows a century-old financial model used by thousands of America’s best private schools that combines tuition and charitable donations to balance the school’s operating budget.
St. Gabriel's Funding Model
Tuition + Donations = Cost of Education
This funding model specifies that 80-90 percent of operating costs be covered by tuition and fees and 10-20 percent be covered by donations. St. Gabriel’s has embraced this historically successful model of tuition + donations for two reasons:
1. It allows St. Gabriel’s to maintain a healthy enrollment by keeping tuition as low as possible.
2. It enables families to receive a charitable tax deduction for a portion of the cost of their child’s education.
