Elachee Nature Academy is a tuition-based school that offers preschool and primary grade programs.
Located within the 1,440-acre Chicopee Woods Nature Preserve, in south Hall County, our nature school shares a campus with and is managed and operated by Elachee Nature Science Center.
Elachee Nature Academy’s inquiry-based curriculum exposes students to concepts that inspire an appreciation for the natural world and focus on the needs of the whole child. Small student to teacher ratios allow for personalized instruction.
Elachee Nature Academy is an ‘Approved School’ through PayItForward Scholarships. This program’s annual application deadline is December 31 for the upcoming school year. Award notifications are announced after April 15.
