Five Oaks Academy is pleased to welcome back students today for the first full day of the 2012-2013 academic year. As we begin our tenth year at Five Oaks Academy, we are welcoming many new families from our area and from around the world. This year we are pleased to welcome families from Costa Rica, South Africa, England, Italy, France, Germany and China coming to join our international community.
New students to the school and students transitioning to a new classroom began their transition days on Wednesday. Transition days are a way that a Montessori education allows for students to adjust to their new academic surroundings without the added distraction of a full classroom. Five Oaks Academy offers transitions days across all of its programs.
We are looking forward to another year of engaging our students curiosity and creativity in the classrooms and wish each of our students a great start to the upcoming year!
“If you are planning for a year,
sow rice;if you are planning for a decade,
plant trees;if you are planning for a lifetime,
educate people”– Chinese proverb
