They encourage my children to use their words, to explore their passions and never be scared to try new things. They lead the children with so much love and honesty. My children come home everyday proud of what they have done at the Academy. There is a true community and the teachers at the school are truly the most amazing women that enrich my family’s life.

To illustrate the level of commitment here, childcare is offered during these evenings to make sure that busy parents like us are able to attend, learning and sharing our experiences with parenting philosophies, our household organization, our personal growth as parents, and ways in which we can can more effectively communicate, interact, and discipline our children.
- Jay Songcharoen
Ancient cultures, fine arts, ecology, inclusiveness, astronomy and so many more areas are integrated. The boys talk about things that I didn’t hear about until much later in my education. The parents are actively involved with each other as well. I am glad they are able to have this immersive experience.
