Foundation

Austin EcoSchool's curriculum emphasizes hands-on learning and exploration. Rather than adopting and adhering to any one educational philosophy, we chose to integrate a wide range of successful educational strategies that support individual learning styles and interests. This educational system has married intellectual training with the development of the child's physical, creative, and moral capacities.

Individual Learning Plans

Individualized Learning Plans are built around the development of basic skills, curriculum themes and areas of student interest. Multi-age classrooms with a maximum of 8 - 10 students foster continuous progress. The students at Austin EcoSchool develop a strong foundation in academics, while learning to gather and evaluate information, identify and understand relationships, master critical thinking skills and communicate effectively and meaningfully.

Our Teachers

In our teachers, we seek experience with multiple alternative curriculums and programs, as well as traditional degreed educational expertise. Our teachers acknowledge and respect the natural gifts of each person, encouraging and challenging students to achieve their fullest human potential.
