I'm a freshman here at KAPS, and it is amazing here. Not much drama, not so many people, be who you really are. They are not mean and horrible like public schools, if you're an outsider, you'll fit in great!

I moved here from El Paso and love this school. My daughter enrolled in KAPS after going to the local H.S. for a short while. She said the teachers actually cared about her grades and her future and knew who she was, which they didn't do in the 5A school back in El Paso. Here at public high school they didn't even acknowledge her because she was new and not from around here from the start. KAPS has an after school program that helps in tutoring and community service as well as sports and other programs. It is a Public Charter School so they have to raise the money for everything they do. What I love the most is that it teaches your children to give back to the community and take responsibility for your own actions, and rewards you with grants and scholarships for all the hard work you do. They are always trying to find ways to help the disadvantage or any students get an education no matter what back ground you have. KAPS goes above and beyond to help any family, not only from Wimberley but for all the neighboring counties! I only wish they had more schools as caring and nurturing as KAPS all around the world!!!

It is a great alternative to regular public school especially if your emphasis is academics, arts, music and NOT football

KAPS has been a beacon and a huge benefit to many families in the the central Texas area, by providing a creative educational environment for kids of all types, allowing them to flourish.
