A Letter from the Executive Director

 
Dear Families,
 
Welcome to Anna’s House!  We are a group of committed educators who understand and value the quality of care as a part of your child’s education.  We are excited to be able to provide a beautiful small school setting for our families in the lovely, secure campus of Virginia’s School for the Deaf and the Blind. 
 
​Anna’s House did not anticipate opening during a pandemic, yet we did this very thing, and we have thrived! 
When Stuart Hall closed down their elementary program in the Spring of 2020 in the midst of the pandemic, a group of teachers felt they could not let the children down. These educators in two months time created a school that was also a fully licensed child care program which could not be shut down. Anna's House School was the only school in Staunton open five days a week all year long, providing in-person elementary education.  It is our hope that we will continue to be a blessing to families in the Staunton/Augusta/Waynesboro area.
​ 
Project-based learning, Spanish, Chapel, Music, and Art are just a few of our offerings.
​
Our goal at Anna’s House is to provide the highest quality education for children in a safe environment. That has a different meaning in today’s world than it did just a year ago. We take every precaution as we continue understanding best practices with new viruses that can affect our in-person learning programs. The Teachers and I commit to updating our precautions as we plan for the future. We are confident your children will get the best education and care at Anna’s House!  

What Makes Us Different:

Project-Based Learning

Students will acquire a deeper knowledge through active exploration of real-world challenges and problems.

Individualized Instruction

 Personal learning is tailored education to meet the different needs of individual students to help them grow.

Extra-Curricular Classes

These activities increase positive self-development and include music, art, and a range of other programs.
