We are truly committed to higher learning and elevated expectations, guiding students to reach their goals and become confident, caring contributors to their community, leading meaningful lives.

Who We Are

Starting with Montessori

The Montessori approach to learning has benefited a wide variety of learners for over one hundred years. Developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, today this educational model is helping young people achieve success in learning and in life.

Order

Intentionally designed classrooms and daily routines.

Concentration

Developmentally appropriate works for all abilities.

Independence

Self-correcting materials let kids explore freely, discover independently, and find the answers within themselves.

Learn About Montessori

Inclusive Education

Inclusion is an educational philosophy built on belonging and equal participation for all learners. In practice, it means students with diverse learning needs learn alongside their peers in shared classrooms — fostering collaboration, empathy, and leadership development for everyone.

Every Child Belongs

with Disabilities

Leadership Growth for All

Continued Through 6th Grade

“Valorization” is the term Maria Montessori uses to describe when an adolescent is in search of personal identity—internalizing core values, then emerging with integrity and confidence and identifying as a worthy person.

Personalized Enrichments & Electives

Including arts, experiential learning, and more, our enrichment opportunities inspire students to engage with the world and pursue individual interests and goals.

Visual Arts

Classroom concepts are deeply embedded, coming alive as they blossom on a canvas or are sculpted in clay. Creativity explodes, finding root in core concepts taught in our Visual Arts Enrichments.

Music

Music Enrichments awaken and enliven the mind and heart in myriad ways, opening neuro-pathways to language and expression, math and sciences, as well as social/emotional connection.

Dance

We use the whole body in our Dance Enrichments to feel classroom concepts down to the bone. Through dance we gain confidence, learn more about culture, community and feel freedom of spirit.

Theatre

Theatre is a culminating arts experience. Through Theatre and Film Electives, academic themes taught in Humanities, STEM and the other arts find expression in a community performance.

Caring Teachers in a Flexible Classroom Environment

Our teachers truly care for every student. Lead teachers have MACTE-accredited Montessori certificates—the international standard setting and accrediting body for Montessori education.

Hear From Our Community

See what parents have to say about Elizabeth Academy. 

"I especially appreciate the school's focus on the whole child, which includes social skills development, problem solving, community and service experiences, the arts, and practical living skills among so many other things! Most importantly, our children LOVE their school and literally gush about it anytime someone asks them."
"Words cannot express the respect and gratitude I have for Elizabeth Academy. Our children's experience (six years thus far) at both schools has been outstanding."
"Our girls have attended Elizabeth Academy for six years now, and we can't imagine sending them anywhere else for school. The individual attention and caring, collaborative environment at EA have been so good for both of them and we love the holistic Montessori approach to education. We also greatly appreciate all the efforts of the administration and teachers to provide our girls the ability to go to school safely during the pandemic. It has been a lifesaver for our family."
"Everything our country needs to learn about dignity, it could learn at Elizabeth Academy..."
Timothy ShriverChairman of Special Olympics, Founder of UNITE and the Dignity Index
