ADS Board of Directors Special Meeting
The ADS Board of Directors has called a Special Meeting for Wednesday, May 29th @ 6 PM to be held in the ADS Library. Open to the community.
ADS won Favorite Charter School again in 2018!
ADS proudly received the 18th Endangered Species Mural Project mural from the Center for Biological Diversity and artist Roger Peet. This beautiful addition to our campus highlights the increasing risk to several local salamander populations.
EcoWellness is an Essential class for all students that they attend once per week. Here, children will learn environmental stewardship, gardening skills, science, and how to care for creatures we share this land with.
Education in nature is a tenant of our philosophy at Austin Discovery School. Every class hikes at least once a week in the vast wooded area between our campus and the Colorado River. These hikes provide opportunities for lessons in science, ecology, nature, as well as invaluable social and community-building opportunities for students and staff. Being grounded in nature lets us all grow as students and aides in our emotional health.

Austin Discovery School has an amazing pollinator garden established by elementary students. We have a local population of bees and butterflies to help the land, health of the planet, and to teach about the symbiotic nature of life on earth.
ADS has an amazing food forest located in the large gardens as a part of the EcoWellness program.
