EMS Celebrates The Lunar New Year

To celebrate the Lunar New Year, the year of the Ox, which began on Feb. 12, our divisions planned lessons surrounding the holiday. One Little School student’s parent helped her child’s class learn more about Lunar New Year and practice Chinese
calligraphy. Our week-long celebration also included one of Vanessa Anderson-Zheng’s remote students playing “The Joy of Spring” on her violin for the 4s class in Chilton House, first-grade students learning to write the word “ox” in Chinese characters, and EMS Korean Bilingual Speech-Language Pathologist Elizabeth Harriman telling a story and teaching brush calligraphy, while dressed in traditional Korean clothing called a hanbok, to our fourth-graders.

There's No Better Time to Support Your Child's Education

Every time you donate to one of Elisabeth Morrow's dedicated funds, you help enrich the daily experiences of our community on campus. STEAM spaces are improved, library catalogues expanded, scholarships are funded, and teachers are hired. Every day, you can see the impact your generous donations have on campus.

EMS prepares students for an impressive range of top-tier secondary schools.

Our students cultivate the ability to learn, think, explore, empathize, and lead. They graduate with the ability, mindset, and competencies to navigate a global world and are well-prepared to face an unknowable future.

Accustomed to a challenging academic environment, EMS students welcome the demands of competitive secondary schools and are often placed in advanced sections where they perform very well.
