Read MoreK-8 Education
In a K-8 educational setting, children can remain “young” and preserve the sacredness of childhood for the entire period of childhood. Students grow from being the youngest in the school to taking on leadership roles as the oldest, giving them an opportunity to serve as role models and thrive with a vibrant sense of community. The result is greater confidence, self-esteem and a sense of belonging, which translates into stronger academic performance at a developmentally appropriate pace. Read More >

Education for Life
Education at CEA extends beyond traditional schooling, creating well-rounded, whole individuals. Students learn to think and develop compassion, a sense of duty, self-awareness, and pride in themselves and their community.
The Arts
Human beings need creativity to feel fulfilled. Participation in the arts allows individuals to approach tasks from various perspectives and encourages students to take risks, “think outside the box,” and cultivate skills that transcend sectors.
Mastery Program
Lessons learned in mastery programs transfer to all other areas of learning. When you learn and master any new skill, you reinforce and enhance the connections you already have.
Character Education
Throughout the school day, character education takes place, and students are engaged in an environment that fosters the development of self-discipline, respect for self and other, and empathy.

From the Desk of Maribel Z. Diaz
Fairy dust on my desk.
For many years I kept a bottle of fairy dust on my desk. Whenever I had students come into my office with a problem, I would sprinkle some fairy dust on their heads to help them calm down and figure out solutions to their problems. After a good talk and more fairy dust to give them strength and clarity, they would leave with the feeling of everything will work out. I must say the success rate was quite high.
Today I wish I could sprinkle fairy dust on our world to make COVID-19 disappear and for us to return to our regular lives.
