Our School
One of three elementary schools in the South Lake district, Koepsell Education Center opened in 1996. It is a School of Choice that follows the South Lake Schools’ curriculum but uses a different methodology – the teachings of William Glasser’s "Choice Theory," and a multiage configuration. Both philosophies are based on the importance of building meaningful relationships among students, teachers and staff. For more information on Choice Theory, read Dr. Glasser's book, “Choice Theory – A New Psychology of Personal Freedom,” and/or visit The William Glasser Institute website at www.wglasser.com
