Parent of an Upper Elementary Student

We love that our son experiences a school curriculum intertwined with nature at Blanco River Academy. From an early age, BRAC instills in students a profound sense of responsibility towards our environment and our shared planet. With a unique approach, and utilizing Blue Hole as a classroom, it serves as a hub for experiential learning.  Every day, our child is nurtured with a stewardship mindset, fostering a deep love for learning within our vibrant surroundings. BRAC continuously engages students and parents alike, reminding us of the countless reasons we cherish our life in Wimberley. I’m so very grateful for a school that is cultivating a generation of mindful stewards and lifelong learners.
