Emerald Heights Academy

What a special place - our children are thriving, happy, and receiving a top-notch education at Emerald Heights. The small class sizes ensure that the children get individual attention and can learn at whatever level they are ready. The school atmosphere is like a family, and the teachers are outstanding. The academics are excellent, and the overall happiness of the kids says it all. We are thrilled to have found this best-kept secret of a school.

My son has attended Emerald Heights Academy for three years. It is a wonderful school, where the teachers, principals, and other parents all want what was is best for each child. The leadership, public speaking, and values they learn are priceless. The academic standards are high, and the small class size allows the teachers to provide an individualized education for each child.

Emerald Heights Academy is an outstanding school. My daughter has been there for 3 years and is growing into a beautiful young lady. Their teachers are warm and loving and really care of the kids. I love having a school that backs up the virtues we teach at home. Our daughter can't wait go to school in the morning, she even asks if she can go on the weekends.

Emerald Heights has made our job of parenting so much easier. It's the best environment for our children because it encourages kind-heartedness, concern for others, honesty, self-discipline and good manners. The other parents also share the same desire to instill good character in our children. Their teachers really know and love our children.

We have two children at Emerald Heights Academy and we're on our third year at the school. What I find so impressive are the parents I've talked to who've had kids attending the school for years. They value the faith and character formation of their children and the strong academics. I personally recognize the children and families at the school to be unique in that they are truly values-centric, intelligent and charitable people. I know that what I try to teach at home is being reinforced at the school. I am so grateful to have found this school early on in my childrens' education.

We have been at this school for a couple of years and I continue to be impressed by their excellent academics. We reviewed many schools on the Eastside before choosing EHA. Although we are not a very religious family, I have liked the faith formation they provide our child. Unlike a previous reviewer, I have never ever felt that there is fundamentalist militaristic' atmosphere. On the contrary, it is very warm and inclusive. I would recommend EHA for parents interested in sending their children to a school where academics and are paramount and positive peer influence is a priority.

We have been an Emerald Heights family for several years. It has been an excellent experience for our whole family. The teachers, staff and other families show deep concern and love for all the children. My children are getting terrific formation in all aspects of their education. I know when I drop them off at EHA, they are somewhere special. We did experience a diocese school for two years and although our son got an education, the environment was not as charitable as Emerald Heights Academy.

Saxon Math, Excellence in writing, positive peer group influences, attitude of politeness and respect are all priceless benefits our family has received from Emerald Heights. I recommend it for families looking for a complete formation of their child with a Christian outlook on our world.

New parents at Emerald Heights Academy , and we have just completed our first year. What a wonderful school! Teachers are compassionate , loving, and warm, with personal attention to each child. This is very much a Christ centered school, the children pray before starting each morning, say grace before meals, and attend mass together every Friday. Charity - The perfection of God- like love, as displkayed in the lives of the Saints, wich consists of deeds, not words. This is true at E.H.A., we have felt very welcome by parents and staff. The principle greets the children every morning with a loving smile, and sends them home with kind words and loving hand shake. There are many fun activities and events at the school, our child can't wait till Semptember! If you are looking for a warm, charitable, friendly, and Christ- like love, you have it at Emerald Heights Academy!
