Elementary

Eno River Academy is a great place to work and learn.  As our mission states: Eno River Academy will nurture a community of academic and artistic distinction, as it enriches each student’s cultural literacy.  Our tradition of excellence stretches back to 1997, when we opened our doors as part of North Carolina’s original wave of charter schools.

Our biggest strength has always been our people.  Our dedicated staff members, supportive parents who hold high expectations for their children, and bright/responsible students make this an excellent educational opportunity for those seeking smaller class sizes and an inclusive school culture.

Academics & STREAM Connection

At the Elementary level, our STREAM-powered learning builds foundational literacy across disciplines:

  • Science & Math: Early investigation and hands-on experiments foster curiosity and critical thinking.

  • Technology & Arts: Digital tools, coding basics, and creative arts spark innovation and self-expression.

  • Research & Engineering: Young learners tackle problem-based units—like designing simple machines—to strengthen teamwork and resilience.

These learning experiences are rooted in our values—belonging, growth, character, and creativity—ensuring every student feels included, begins to see mistake‑making as part of growth, develops responsible choices, and explores their emerging voice.

If you are considering Eno River Academy as a future educational option for your child, please join us for one of our group tours and information sessions (no RSVP necessary). I recommend liking our Facebook Page as an easy/great way to keep up with school happenings.

We hope to see you at ERA!
