About Ad Astra. A non-profit educational institution, Ad Astra is partnering with Xplor Education to form an innovative school to benefit the local community. While their parents support the breakthroughs that expand the realm of human possibility, their children will grow into the next generation of innovators in a way that only authentic Montessori can provide.
With both Primary and Lower Elementary environments, Ad Astra (which means "to the stars") will be located on a former horse ranch on some-forty acres of Texas plain.
