šŸšØ ELONā€™S MONTESSORI SCHOOL: STEM, SNACKS, AND ZERO ā€œWOKE PROPAGANDAā€

Elonā€™s latest project isnā€™t a rocket, a tunnel, or a memeā€”itā€™s Ad Astra, a Montessori school near Bastrop, about 30 miles southeast of Austin, Texas, where kids ages 3 to 9 can learn STEM skills, solve problems, and snack on carrots and hummus.

The school sits on 40 acres of land near his other ventures, including SpaceX and The Boring Co., conveniently located for employeesā€™ kidsā€”or Elonā€™s own ever-growing fleet of offspring.

A 4,000-square-foot house is being converted into a classroom for up to 21 students, with a focus on hands-on learning, outdoor play, and ā€œauthentic Montessoriā€ methods.

While tuition will be subsidized at first, parents can eventually expect private-school price tags.

Elon, whoā€™s made his views on education crystal clear, wants fewer kids growing up to become political science majors and more learning ā€œusefulā€ trades like engineering or plumbing.

This isnā€™t Elonā€™s first swing at schoolingā€”he started a similar Ad Astra school in California back in 2014 and has childcare centers popping up near SpaceX facilities.

But his Texas version lines up neatly with his growing political influence, where heā€™s pushing back on diversity and inclusion efforts and aligning himself with Trumpā€™s education agenda.

For now, Ad Astra promises to raise the next generation of ā€œbuilders and problem solvers,ā€ because if thereā€™s one thing Elon loves, itā€™s creating the futureā€”preferably one STEM project at a time.
