Cedar Crest Academy

read moreThe foundation of the Cedar Crest Academy educational experience is that all subjects are presented one grade advanced from a traditional educational track and optimized from there. We cater to students who thrive with a higher academic bar supported by a small class size presenting an opportunity for more personalized learning and a vibrant social environment. All students starting in preprimary participate in our integrated character education program, the Ten Pillars of Character. Elementary students build upon this foundation each year as well as participate in more organized activities around character and kindness.
