Quiet days. Lasting impressions.
We had the BEST experience with St Emmelia! So thankful this was the first school experience my son had. Mrs Corinna taught my 4 year old with so much love and patience. Her school provided a safe and healthy (mind, body, spirit) environment. He couldn't wait to go to school and learn skills like baking muffins, sharing with others, art, spelling, and music. I love the way this school made learning fun! I appreciated the use of outdoor time and encouragement to use his imagination. I can't recommend St Emmelia enough. As a homeschool parent, him learning from another trusted adult with other precious kids (not in our household) was so beneficial in his education experience. Bonus, it was a much needed reset for me too.
