Aug Prep is more than a school, it's a community where excellence, faith, and holistic education come together. We’re not only about high standards but also creating a place where people love to grow, learn, and inspire! We currently serve over 2,400 K4‑12 students in our ninth year at our South Campus. We are thrilled to launch our North Campus in the 26‑27 school year, initially serving about 300 students in grades K4‑6 and 9.

• Living Faith:
  Jesus is at the center of all we do. Join a team where you can pray together, worship together, and anchor your work in hope.
• Award‑Winning Workplace:
  Recognized as a “Best Place to Work” by the Milwaukee Business Journal six times in a row, standing out as the only school on the list in most years!
• High Expectations that Open Doors:
  We foster a dynamic culture of growth and development for students and staff alike. Our students regularly surpass expectations on state assessments and our graduates have a 100% college acceptance rate and a cumulative $85million+ in scholarships!
• Outstanding Resources:
  From a “classroom supplies” fund to top‑notch curriculum to field trips to advanced technology, we shower our team with the tools they need to succeed. Our state‑of‑the‑art facilities include advanced sports complexes, performing arts centers, top‑notch classrooms and two swimming pools.
• Whole‑Child Approach:
  From arts to athletics to character education, we nurture students’ minds, bodies, and souls.
• Joy Factor:
  This work is hard, but we work hard to bring JOY in all we do! Things like silly staff competitions, praise and worship sessions, team social events or learning a new skill like pickleball or gardening during a professional development day, we ensure our staff finds JOY with one another too!
• Benefits:
  Aug Prep offers a robust benefits package including medical/dental/vision, a 401(k) with employer match and employer‑sponsored disability coverage. Full‑time employees each receive $2,500/year for college courses or professional development. For a more complete list of our benefits, please .
