Appamada School

"Our office recently had the pleasure of working with Ariel and her team of educators. It's truly rare to walk into a math classroom and see ninth graders giddy over calculus! But that's exactly what happens at Skybridge Academy. From the black box theater, to the onsite garden; this Hill Country school is actively making better humans. Keep up the GOOD work."

"My son is now a graduated senior after 4 years at Skybridge, and we are so grateful for this wonderful school. Skybridge truly values each child individually, supporting, nurturing, and empowering them. They give kids a voice, the opportunity to make an impact, and a tailored experience that taps into their specific interests and talents. Our son was transformed at Skybridge, he came out of his shell, gained a voice, learned how to succeed and fail, and knew he was deeply cared for every single day. Thank you so much, Skybridge!"

"I can't say enough positive things about Skybridge Academy to do it justice. My oldest graduated last year and is thriving at college and was prepared both socially and academically. My youngest is a sophomore and the reason we came to find Skybridge, he is bright but was struggling to fit in the box of public school, he has become a different person since starting 3 years ago, he is happy to go to school everyday and enjoys the challenging but creative curriculum Skybridge offers and because he feels so supported has ventured off and tried things he has NEVER enjoyed like Art. The staff and the owner manage to keep what is magical about Skybridge while educating a very diverse and bright student body in the absolute least restrictive way possible. Oh and the two Rescue pig mascots make it so fun to visit."

"I can't say enough wonderful things about Skybridge. The teachers and administration make learning enjoyable. The environment they create makes students want to learn more, to be more independent, and to engage and become invested in their own education. The small classroom sizes, time outdoors, and the freedom to explore new subjects helped my child truly thrive."

"Ariel and the rest of the staff at Skybridge have done a WONDERFUL job of creating a vibrant learning environment where students' needs and interests come first. The whole Skybridge community embraces an individualized, inclusive approach to education that welcomes each person's strengths, weaknesses, and areas of interest. My kids are brilliant and funny, but they needed something different from even the great magnet programs in public schools; they have thrived at Skybridge, where their thirst for learning is satisfied in ways that honor their differences and celebrate their contributions. Parents of students who need a different approach to education should definitely talk with Ariel about whether Skybridge would be a fit for their children in 6th through 12th grade."
