FAQs
Do you serve children with special needs?
While we do not have a service available for children who require a 1:1 guide, we welcome those who are neurodivergent, highly sensitive, and/or gifted. We are an ESA+ provider striving to meet the needs of students with mild disabilities, most commonly including level 1 autism, ADHD, and sensory processing challenges. Please reach out to us if you have more specific questions about your child's needs.
Do we have to identify as Christian?
No, we welcome everyone who values love, learning, and compassion. We are Christian, and in our microschool, we pray, talk about Jesus, and occasionally play Christian music. Students in the microschool participate in Bible study and Christian apologetics classes. Our summer camps and enrichment classes focus only on the subject matter of the class without Bible topics included.
All Bible classes in the microschool are taught from a non-denominational perspective without getting into doctrinal debates, as we feel those are best left for parents to teach.
Do you accept the Opportunity Scholarship?
Yes!
Does anyone live in the house?
No, the property is used solely for Creation Acre programs.
Is Creation Acre an accredited Montessori school?
We're not yet accredited. For a new school, it takes a while to complete the accreditation process. We are an AMS member school. Our head of school is an AMI member. And all of our lead teachers are AMI-trained or currently enrolled in an AMI training program. We will pursue AMI recognition once all teachers have completed AMI training within the next two years.
This does not hinder our commitment to following Montessori principles. We adhere to teaching methods and the use of materials that you would find in an accredited Montessori classroom. While we are looking forward to becoming accredited, we maintain high standards for academic excellence, an effectively prepared environment, and the respect of children.
