​We are a nature based elementary school located on Gilleland Creek just north of Austin, Texas, offering children the opportunity to enjoy an enchanting childhood as they learn about the world and acquire the tools of learning that they need to explore the world. Our curriculum is integrated through year long themes. 
We are an intentionally small community-based, progressive private elementary school located just north of Austin, TX. We are committed to an approach that supports how to think rather than what to think, authentic relevant coursework, appreciation for individuality, positive individual attention, and empowerment through choice.
