Cultural Fair 2012

 

May 14th was the annual Cultural Fair at Elizabeth Academy! The students 

have been focusing on the European continent this year.  

During the Fair students shared food and artifacts from France, 

Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Ireland and Greece.

  

 

 

 Traditions, cuisine and languages of the world were shared while friends and families enjoyed a presentation of song, dance and cultural displays by the children.

 

Thank you to all who made this year's fair a huge success!

Spring is in the Air!

April brings the exciting season of spring, and with it comes warmer weather and growth.

We want to thank all the friends and families who joined us for our Celebration of Spring! The children enjoyed showcasing their projects and watching the hatchlings of butterflies, ladybugs and chicks.
 
It's a refreshing and exciting time of year and we love learning and growing with your children!

“Spring is the time of plans and projects.”
― Leo Tolstoy

Please encourage any friends or acquaintances who you think might be interested in Elizabeth Academy to join us for refreshments and an informative evening about our school and the benefits of a Montessori education.

Welcome to Our Blog

Welcome to our blog!

We are an authenitc, accredited Montessori school serving typical children agese 2-9. The Elizabeth Academy is a private Montessori school with an emphasis on inclusion (children with special needs comprise up to 20% of enrollment). After researching alternatives, we believe that a Montessori education is the BEST education for all children as it cultivates independence, creative thinking and learning at an individualized, accelerated pace.

Elizabeth Academy mandates legitimate inclusion --creating a slice of the real world with a safety net of real professionals at arms length and open arms to competently and lovingly help navigate the path.

We look forward to working with you and your child to create a brighter future!
