Early Childhood Summer Program
Our Early Childhood Summer Program has two sections-- one for Headwaters 18 mos.-3 years and and another open to Headwaters students and Austin-area children ages 3-5.
The Early Childhood Summer Program (ECSP) operates for nine weeks each summer on the Headwaters School Springs Campus at 6305 Menchaca Rd., Austin, TX 78745. ECSP will incorporate some Montessori curriculum and philosophies into the programming, but will not be strictly Montessori in the approach.
ECSP YCC is for children 18 mos.-3 years who are currently enrolled in Headwaters School. ECSP Primary is for children ages 3-5 and is open to Headwaters students and Austin-area children.
To maximize consistency and routine, ECSP will run in four two-week sessions, with a shortened/modified session the week of the 4th of July. Extended Care is offered before and after the camp day for an additional charge. Summer 2024 Dates and Rates are as follows:
