The Alabama-Coushatta Tribe of Texas Education Center is a metal-framed building that contains four functions: Head Start School, Education Department, Youth Services Department, and the Tribal Library. The Head Start School is a licensed facility that will serve the Tribe’s families as well as the surrounding community. The Education and Youth Services Departments provide a variety of services to Tribal youth, including tutoring, testing facilities, after school activities and summer enrichment programs. The Tribal Library is designed to be a social hub for the Tribal community by providing quiet reading and storytelling spaces for elders as well as individual and group study spaces for the youth. In addition to housing the services provided by these four entities, the Education Center also provides a gym/auditorium as a community activity space for meetings, presentations, banquets and other social activities.
