Education from the Roots Up

Here in South Texas, 4H and stock shows aren’t just seasonal events—they’re part of our heritage. At Agriculture Science Academy (ASA), we honor that tradition by weaving it right into the heart of our students’ learning experiences. Because let’s be honest—some of the best lessons happen in boots, not behind desks.

We don’t just teach about agriculture. We live it. Through individualized learning plans, our students gain hands-on experience in animal husbandry, leadership, land management, and creative expression. Whether they’re prepping for a county fair or aiming for the big Texas stock shows, ASA students are guided, supported, and celebrated every step of the way.

Learning through living:

Project-based learning opportunities

Each student at ASA dives into meaningful, real-life projects that grow both skill and character.
Here are just a few of the exciting areas they can explore:

  • Cattle Specialist – Raising and showing cattle with expert guidance.
  • Equine Program – Learning horsemanship, care, and training.
  • Breeding Rabbits – Understanding genetics, care, and competition prep.
  • Archery – Developing precision, focus, and confidence.
  • Fine Arts – Expressing creativity through painting, drawing, and more.
  • Land Specialist – Managing soil, crops, and sustainability practices.
  • Woodworking – Building practical and creative projects with craftsmanship.
  • Sewing & Textiles – Learning design, stitching, and garment creation.
  • Cooking & Culinary Arts – Mastering essential kitchen skills and meal prep.
  • And More! – Students can explore additional projects based on their interests.

At ASA, we focus on “The Roots for Education”—building a foundation that matters. 

We utilize the expansive outdoor landscape as a living classroom—where students learn through animal caretaking, agriculture, service projects, and real-world application. Whether in the barn, the field, or the workshop, every lesson is designed to strengthen their faith, build resilience, and prepare them for a life of purpose.
