About
Our Mission
Enlightenment for Everyone
We believe that on the child rests the future of humanity. So we must love, value, and respect every child. All children are unique, and we will diligently strive to meet them at their individual needs, realizing that this benefits the whole.
We will focus on all strengths, overcome weaknesses, and imagine possibilities. Our commitment is to create an environment where every learner is seen, supported, and empowered to reach their fullest potential.
Our Vision
Enlightenment for Life
Our vision is to create an innovative and inclusive model school that consistently evolves, transforming both the educational landscape and the perceptual understanding of people with intellectual disabilities. We believe this model will not only advance the lives of those with disabilities but will simultaneously improve the lives of all others involved. Ultimately, we aim to be a model for inclusive education — connected with universities, integrated in educational and therapeutic programs, and easily adapted to public, private, or charter school settings.
Foundational Values
At Elizabeth Academy, everything we do is rooted in a set of core values that guide how we teach, how we treat one another, and how we grow together as a community.
Transcendence
You are loved, you are unique, and you belong.
Respect
We are diverse, but not divisive. We actively pursue peace, unity, and mutual respect for varying beliefs, backgrounds, and abilities.
Dignity in Divinity
Imagine a world where all who enter are loved, valued, and appreciated for their intrinsically divine worth and potential.

A Message From Our Founder
Welcome all. I invite you to discover what I have found to be the answer to modern education, fulfilling the needs of the whole child and every child. Incredibly, a little school born of the desire to attend to the educational needs of children with learning differences has become a fertile nesting place for typical and gifted learners. All children discover the wonder of learning at Elizabeth Academy as they are guided through a rich and challenging curriculum. It is pure joy!
- Gail Williamsen,
Founder & Executive Director
