APOGEE KELLER TEAM
Founders
Robert and Morgan Dunlap
We are Robert + Morgan Dunlap. We both were born and raised in Oklahoma, been together since high school and have been Texans for almost 8 years. We have three young children that are our driving force on this venture. With school on the horizon for our son, we knew we wanted something different. Our mission is for our children to know who they are, Whose they are and to think critically. There’s nothing more important than the future generation and raising strong leaders. We partnered with Apogee Strong because we believe each child has a unique, inherent genius and we just need to help unlock it. Keller is home for us and we couldn’t think of a better place to bring Apogee to and see the impact it has on the young learners and their families. We can’t wait to meet you!
Head of School
Emily Dlugonski
I am Emily Dlugonski, an Oklahoma native turned Texan, embracing this new chapter of life with excitement, gratitude, and a sense of adventure. I am a business owner with my husband, a lover of baking, and enjoy living life as naturally and holistically as possible. I believe that in nurturing the whole self, we cultivate balance, joy, and resilience—I strive to live by these principles daily.
Working closely with children has always been my calling, especially in the formative early years, where curiosity and imagination lay the groundwork for a lifetime of learning. Armed with a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education, I am dedicated to guiding children in a way that honors who they are and supports who they are meant to become. It’s my passion to create an environment where children feel seen, supported, and encouraged to explore their unique gifts. My aim is to provide not just knowledge but also the tools and confidence they need to navigate their world with kindness, courage, and curiosity.
Adventure Coach
Rebecca Atkins
My name is Rebecca, I am a mother of 5 children between the ages of 3 and 17 and am an outdoor/nature/simple life enthusiast. I have spent the last 12 years homeschooling my children while traveling the world, residing in multiple countries and visiting countless others, living as much as possible naturally and in nature, growing and developing our minds through handcraft and learning new skills, seeking experience and adventure, and reading all the books.
I love educating my children + learning from them, moving to new places, reading books, doing everything outdoors, and learning new skills. As a family we hunt and harvest almost 100% of the meat we consume, run a small personal farm, grow and preserve what we can, and continuously find ourselves bringing home more dogs.
We are thrilled that you’re interested in joining our vibrant community of learners, educators, and families. At Apogee Keller, we believe that education is a shared journey—one that fosters curiosity, growth, and meaningful connections. We are excited at the opportunity to get to know you better!
