Educating the Head, Heart, and Hands Escuela Caracol provides education for children in the Lake Atitlán region that is: • Holistic • Multilingual • Arts-integrated • Intercultural Our goal is to nurture and develop the whole child – not only the head but the heart and the hands as well – while also encouraging an awareness of humanity’s place within nature and the cosmos. Through this distinct approach, Escuela Caracol strives to foster integration within our whole community, which represents a unique blend of both indigenous Maya and international families.
