  • Description

    Description

    We are an alternative school located in the upper northeast of Thailand, 700 km away from Bangkok and 80 km from the Mekong River. The school is on the campus of a university. We currently enroll 275 students in the kindergarten through secondary grades. We believe in providing students with a positive and effective learning environment where they enjoy learning through project-based activities, outdoor activities and fieldwork, soft-skill-enhanced activities, cross-cultural programs, etc.

    The school and parents have worked closely to sustain this program, and we have seen wonderful impacts on our students, parents, and teachers.

    We are excited to collaborate with you because we both value meaningful learning and living. You will have a memorable experience as a volunteer teacher and community member.
