The Elisabeth Morrow School

EMS has been a perfect match for our son and our family. What truly sets this school apart is how deeply its values are woven into every part of the day. The 4 C's—courtesy, consideration, cooperation, and compassion—aren't just words on a wall. They are lived out in every handshake, every classroom interaction, and every moment of learning. Our son feels safe, seen, and heard every day. The staff truly listens and takes the time to understand him as an individual. The small class sizes and personalized learning approach have made all the difference. His unique strengths are supported, and areas where he needs growth are approached with patience and care. He's thriving - academically, emotionally, and socially. Another reason EMS stands out is the genuine partnership between parents and teachers. Communication is open, respectful, and consistent. We always feel informed, involved, and supported - like we are truly working together toward a shared goal: our child's growth and well-being. We are so grateful to be part of a school community that aligns so perfectly with our values and nurtures not only academic success but also personal character.

As a second grade parent, so far EMS has been wonderful! The campus is gorgeous and the kids are greeted with a smile and a handshake every morning. My child has made great friends and we have begun to create lasting relationships with families as well. My daughter comes home everyday with a smile. The classrooms are great and the teachers very engaging. They are quick to respond to any questions or concerns as well as share feedback on their own. So far two thumbs up!!!!

We are grateful to be part of such a vibrant, creative, supportive school community. Our son enjoys school and the challenges that they are given has made great friends and can grow up in a beautiful and supportive environment. Teachers challenge and support students as needed and work well with the parents to be able to provide the best experience for each child.

The Elisabeth Morrow School builds a strong foundation for children. As an alum and current parent, I am so happy my children have the opportunity to be a part of this special school and community. The lessons and education I received at EMS have stayed with me through all endeavors in higher education, the workplace, and within my communities. I am so grateful my children have the opportunity to experience this school. There is no other school as special as EMS.

Our child has been at EMS since Kindergarten. In that time we feel she has had an exceptional education from a very supportive and creative team of teachers and administrators. The community is diverse, inclusive and warm, and most importantly to us, she has been happy. Their music program is unlike any other and their support of the Arts has been a great joy in our child's world.

The Elisabeth Morrow School has been amazing for my child and our entire family! Since the 3s program, they have encouraged her to be herself, helped us be better parents, and we've gained an amazing community of friends. I have always said that the teachers there know my child and I do. They work so closely with the children; they don't just show up for work. The academics are rigorous but achievable. Some private schools so demand that kids need tutors just to pass. The arts, music, technology, and other programs are beyond anything I've experienced at any other school. One thing I really like about EMS compared to other schools or even other communities is the importance of character building. This is not a private school full of rich, snotty kids and their nasty parents who let the nannies raise their children. It is a caring, inclusive environment that works to bring out the best in everyone.
