Values
- Dignity in Divinity
- Imagine a world where everyone wins. Where all who enter are loved, valued and appreciated for their intrinsically divine worth and potential. Where differences are viewed with intrigue and wonder. Calm and confidence replace competition and anxiety. Hands reach out, lift up, embrace and strengthen one another. Gifts are cherished no matter how great or small. Imagine the possibilities at Elizabeth Academy.
