Choose an Austin Prep Education Rooted in Augustinian Values

Austin Preparatory School

Austin Preparatory School, located in Reading, Massachusetts, is an independent Catholic prep school rooted in the Augustinian tradition. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, Austin Prep has cultivated a close-knit learning community since its founding in 1961. Guided by its mission to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve, the school challenges students through a rigorous college preparatory program that includes honors and Advanced Placement courses, personalized instruction, and intentionally small classes. An Austin Prep education is preparation for the journey of life. Beyond academics, the school’s unwritten curriculum – the lived expression of veritas, unitas, and caritas (truth, unity, and love) – forms the heart of its mission. “At Austin Prep, we are on a journey that is life-changing and important,” says Head of School James Hickey, Ph.D. “Our patron, St. Augustine, embarked on a journey for the truth. At our core is an institution on the same journey, committed to exemplary teaching and learning.” Serving grades 6–12 under one roof allows this leading prep school to guide students through every stage of development—academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Community stands at the center of this experience, nurturing belonging and inspiring students to lead lives of purpose. Austin Prep athletics teams, competing in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC), are recognized among the best north of Boston, reflecting the same drive and integrity found in the classroom. Nearly every graduate continues on to a four-year college, prepared not only for success in higher education but for a meaningful life shaped by faith, friendship, and service.

Firehouse Center for the Arts is proud to present Recycled Percussion, the internationally acclaimed "junk rock" phenomenon from New Hampshire, for a special three-day engagement in Newburyport from Friday, July 10 through Sunday, July 12.
Following sold-out performances around the world and an award-winning Las Vegas residency that entertained more than two million guests, Recycled Percussion is bringing its electrifying live show back to New England for five unforgettable performances that promise explosive energy, interactive entertainment, and music unlike anything audiences have ever experienced.
The performance schedule includes:
<ul><li>Friday, July 10 – 8:00 p.m.</li><li>Saturday, July 11 – 2:00 p.m. &amp; 7:30 p.m.</li><li>Sunday, July 12 – 2:00 p.m. &amp; 6:30 p.m.</li></ul>
Known for turning everyday objects—including ladders, buckets, power tools, kitchen sinks, scrap metal, and even cars—into percussion instruments, Recycled Percussion has redefined live entertainment. Their unique blend of musicianship, comedy, athleticism, audience participation, and high-octane production has captivated audiences in more than 30 countries.
The New Hampshire-based group first gained national attention as finalists on NBC's America's Got Talent, launching a career that led to appearances on Carson Daly, The Today Show, China's Got Talent, and numerous national television specials. Their headline residency on the Las Vegas Strip became one of the city's longest-running family entertainment productions, earning the group the prestigious "Best Family Show" title multiple times.
"This is more than a concert—it's an experience," said Matthew Castonguay, founder of New England Entertainment NOW! "Recycled Percussion has become one of New England's greatest entertainment success stories, and we're thrilled to bring them to the beautiful Firehouse Center for the Arts. Whether you're seeing them for the first time or the tenth, audiences leave amazed."
Founded by Justin Spencer, Recycled Percussion was built on the simple idea that music can be created from virtually anything. Today, the group continues to inspire audiences through performances that combine world-class percussion, humor, innovation, and a message of perseverance and creativity.
