The facilities are well-kept and the playground and outdoor area is especially nice and spacious to boot. With a full classroom, the individual rooms border on cramped, but the teachers are expert at a divide and conquer approach with multiple stations and areas to keep a relatively peaceful feel. Snack time can get loud with 16 kids around a table, but after a few weeks it's amazing to see them using cups, asking politely for seconds, using utensils etc. Parents bring in the snack, which nurtures the community feel over a teacher simply handing out the same stuff time and again, or mom and dad packing individual snacks strictly for their own young ones. Teachers literally have decades of experience and an uncanny mastery over their pint-sized pupils. Classrooms are run with an eye to order, fun, and constant reinforcement of basic values like kindness, sharing, table manners, curiosity and play. With that said, CCNS does not batter children with curriculum or enforce mastery of academic concepts. If you're one of those super parents who want your kid publishing their first doctoral thesis at age 16, this is probably not the place for you. Children in diapers are welcome to attend, but they will work on potty training them ASAP. In fact, my own little one was out of diapers within a few weeks of coming here. Seeing his peers use the potty and getting encouragement from other grownups helped our stubborn guy kick his Huggies addiction. Parent(s) are expected to help in the classroom about twice a month. This is almost always a great time, but depending on your situation it may not be ideal. Additionally, you will join one of several committees and participate in a clean-up day. All told, your time investment will average around 6 hours a month. I personally love the co-oping aspect of the school, as parents are much more involved than quick drop offs and pickups, and hanging with kids is just plain fun. We're wrapping up our first year here and are enrolled in a second. We also plan to send our next one through CCNS. Feel free to write with questions.

This school is NOT a college prep school.

The administration is more concerned with looking good than providing any education. Students RUN the school, there is no discipline, and when they leave the school to go into high school they are far from prepared. The teachers do what they can but they are not supported at all. The school reduced staff and fired the aides and they were truly a huge asset to the students. The school has gone very downhill.

The facility itself is not fancy but it is clean and safe. They have structured class time during the school year and a schedule of fun rotating activities during the summer like park and water days. They have also been flexible with my schedule, allowing me to bring my kiddo in on different days as my needs have changed, even at relatively short notice. It is nice to work with such a flexible staff. Other facilities may look fancier, but you would be hard pressed to find a place that cares as much and treats the kids as well as Sunrise. I love it and highly recommend them.

I am impressed that they are learning Biology, Geometry, Geography and not just math and science. They are specific in the field they are studying. They take intriguing field trips that we talk about for weeks. The educational experience is very integrated. They love helping their peers and getting to know the children who are younger and older. Children are respectful and quiet. They are fully absorbed in the learning experience. We have been at the Elizabeth Academy for 3 years now and I only wish we had found out about it sooner. I wish all children could have an educational experience that is as magical as the Elizabeth Academy. In response to the two other reviews... My daughter who is in seventh grade has muscular dystrophy. She was a new student in sixth grade and was heavily encouraged to return in seventh grade. She, in particular, loves the school. For the first time in her life she is not the only child who is different. She is one of two children at the school with a severe physical disability there are also several children with profound mental disabilities. There are many, many children with mild disabilities of varying types. I know that some of these children are there on scholarship and I have seen them return year after year. The school tries to accommodate therapies within the school day. We have been at several schools in two different states. I have never had an educational experience with my children as good as the Elizabeth Academy. I think they do a fantastic job.

They have a strong focus on and commitment to their curriculum, even among their youngest students, and they share their curriculum for each respective class with parents of enrolled students.

We've been impressed with many of the teachers and have watched how our children have grown and evolved under their care.
