At Eton we believe a school is more than classrooms and
lunchrooms, books and lockers. A school is more than a building
held together by brick and mortar. At Eton, we believe a school is
a foundation. A foundation for students to grow into the thinkers,
the leaders, and the get-out-and-doers who keep our lives evolving
and our world moving.
At Eton Academy, we know that students who learn differently
may find the structure of traditional schools almost impossible to
manage. But at Eton, we don't believe in the impossible. We believe
in looking at every student as an individual with extraordinary
gifts and potential. We know that when educators understand the
strength and beauty in students various differences, years of
frustration can flourish into years of focus and success.
Eton educators don't believe in the structure or rules of
traditional schools. We believe that we can and should change any
structure or rule that get in the way of a students ability to
learn. At Eton, we use a research-based instructional program that
we call the Eton Approach. Within the Eton Approach, students are
empowered to use assistive technologies to help overcome obstacles
in their learning. We believe that exceptional teaching is the key
to student success; therefore, Eton teachers have trainers and
coaches who facilitate ongoing teacher growth to ensure that every
student receives exactly what he or she needs to be successful. We
believe that everything we do in the classroom leads to success
outside of it. Students don't just learn reading, writing,
mathematics, art, music, physical education, science and history;
they develop essential learning skills, social skills, and
self-awareness techniques that help them branch out and thrive
beyond the boundaries of the classroom.Above all, we believe in
kindness.
We know that students succeed best in an environment that is
safe, nurturing, and free from judgement. Our compassionate,
patient, never-say-never community of educators is dedicated to
helping students overcome obstacles with constant
encouragement.

We transferred our son to Eton from another private school last year. While our former school worked hard to accommodate our son's learning needs with ADHD and dyslexia, by the middle of third grade, we realized he needed a different learning environment to grow and reach his full potential. His transition to Eton has been excellent. He went from hating school and feeling discouraged every day to becoming a confident student with friends and good relationships with his teachers. The best moment for us was hearing from his former teacher, who provided summer tutoring after his first half-year at Eton, about how much progress she observed. For our son, Eton has made school a positive experience and a place where he is learning and growing.
