Active participation is vital to learning. Everyone has a unique combination of talents. Children learn all the time, inside and outside a school's buildings.
Education is a way of life.
Upattinas School and Educational Resource Center was founded in 1971 by a group of parents and educators who wanted to be involved in the creation of a holistic, experiential learning setting for children. In the interest of finances, theyalso agreed to help keep the school clean and physically maintained. Thus Upattinas became a parent cooperative organization. Upattinas has evolved over the years, but these principles are still in practice. Licensed by the state as a private academic school, the Resource Center includes full and part time programs as well as home education services for students from kindergarten through graduation.
