Background

Feasibility studies were conducted in local and surrounding communities from 1996 to 1997, and the results affirmed that interest and funding potential existed for the new school. The planning group sought guidance from the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of San Antonio. After receiving counsel from Archbishop Patrick Flores and with cooperation of the Fredericksburg Deanery, the Our Lady of the Hills College Prep project was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) organization in 1998 (under the original working name, “St. Ignatius Regional Catholic High School”).
