The 2023-2024 School Year by the Numbers!




The Circle School 2023-2024 School Year by the numbers!

  • 171 class days made up the 2023-2024 school year, bringing our students and teachers together for our 58th year of teaching peace in San Antonio! 

  • We had 99 students enrolled this school year coming to us from 81 co-op families. 

  • 23 staff members, 11 full time and 12 part time, led these students and families through another great year. 

  • 2 eighth grade students graduated and are moving on to high school (at least one asked if he could start all over in the Moon Room next year)! 

  • 37 unique morning stories were told in Circle this school year. Every morning our entire school gathers in a circle made up of all age groups to engage in the practice of oral storytelling. We select stories that teach peace, empathy, open-mindedness, and social justice, carrying each week's wisdom lessons into the curriculum and classes for that week. “The stories reveal the similarities and diversities of human experience and interpretation. They open us up to our place in the human community and to the strength and existence of other cultures.” - Isabeth Hardy, Circle School Founder

  • 6,283 Co-op hours were logged by families, including our parent volunteer board of directors. Each co-op family volunteers their skills and abilities as a way to support their children's education while modeling to our children the importance of working together toward a common purpose despite the different backgrounds we represent. Our cooperative model works because of the combined efforts of our participating families and the love and commitment they have for our community. 

  • We experienced 2 solar eclipses this school year, one annular and one total, and enjoyed viewing and learning as a community.
