Soaring Ahead
EAGLE CREEK ACADEMY
a private school serving
elementary students, preschool children and toddlers
in Lake Orion, Michigan
Eagle Creek’s children are unique and amazing individuals who challenge themselves, soar in school and beyond, and find joy in life.
At Eagle Creek​
The children are in small classes so the teachers can offer customized lessons.
We do a lot of hands-on STEM activities because children learn best when they are actively engaged.
Each class is like a small family where the children & their parents develop strong friendships that last a lifetime.
​
Love and joy are the greatest teachers.

From Mrs. Deering, an Eagle Creek Teacher
"When I first experienced ECA, I was so intrigued! We have a gorgeous building with big classrooms, natural light and wooded areas all around. I love the giant eagles when you walk in the front doors. To me, the entire campus shouts inspiration, freedom, creativity, and the opportunity for unique learning, soaring above and beyond what we think we might be capable of.
"I am so happy that we are not a traditional, cement school building full of overloaded classrooms with no time for fun, motivating, experiential learning. I think there is no limit to what the kids can learn and experience here.
​
"The small class size really allows the children to create lasting bonds with their classmates, and as a teacher, I can really get to know my kids and their families. I like how each classroom, with its welcoming mood and cozy furniture, feels like home.
​
"Yes, we do give the children a solid academic foundation, but ECA is more about creating strong relationships and taking learning to new heights. I feel like that is what sets us apart."
