A Traveling, Experiential Learning, Hands-On School
"Doing is the best way to learn."

The Roving Learners is a small private school dedicated to addressing students' individual academic and behavioral needs. There is a strong focus on social emotional learning and pro-social skills. Students engage with the public numerous days a week, under the watchful eye one to two teachers. Students all follow the same theme each day or week, but complete different activities depending on their skill level and interests.

Roving Learners has a small bus and a 15 person passenger van used to get around the city and surrounding area. We usually roam three days a week to visit places that fit the theme we are studying at any given time. Two days a week we stay at our home base, 405 Academy Dr. 78704, to focus on academics; reading, writing and math. The skills students are introduced to at the home base are reinforced and put to use as we rove around town.
