Texas Military Institute

Texas Military Institute, TX. Founded in 1893, TMI is the oldest Episcopal Church-sponsored college-preparatory school in the Southwest. TMI’s vision is unique, bold, and timely. At a time when the independent school world seems to be more concerned with “being all things to all people,” TMI stands out because the mission of the school drives our program and sets our standards.

The mission of TMI is to provide an excellent educational community, with values based on the teachings of Jesus Christ, challenging motivated students to develop their full potential in service and leadership.

Our goal is to produce servant leaders who are compassionate, selfless, responsible, enlightened, and inspired to go out and change the world.

While we acknowledge that we are a college preparatory school, we do not limit our identity to achievements based on such statistics as Advanced Placement scores, SAT averages, and college placement. We do embrace and celebrate the idea of academic accomplishments, yet we are committed as much to the formation of the Christian character as to providing a premier academic experience.

Academics
TMI provides its students with a classic, fundamental college-preparatory education. In addition to the core curriculum, students are required to take one year of fine arts, and one year of religion. The Middle School program follows a similar track and includes a strong study skills component to prepare students for success in the upper grades.

Athletics
The athletic department at TMI centers on the motto or philosophy of "doing it the right way." The "it" covers to everything we do from our varsity sports, to middle school team sports, and to our physical education classes. We strive to ensure that every young person at TMI is provided a quality athletic experience.

TMI recognizes that competitive sports are crucial to the overall development of young men and women. Our students compete in athletics while maintaining the highest of standards in the classroom and in their daily lives. Varsity teams compete in the Southwest Preparatory Conference (S.P.C.); junior varsity and freshman squads play a schedule independent of the S.P.C.
