Breakfast Meeting 5/13; Open House 5/14

Last Chance For Scholarships!

Cortona Academy is awarding as many as 15 full and partial scholarships for the 2016-17 school year! Find out more about scholarships and our stress-free learning environment and high-tech project-based classes at the informational events listed below. To be considered for scholarships for the 2016-17 year, a parent or guardian must attend one of these final two informational events or have attended an open house this past school year. Applications must be received by May 20. Scholarships will be awarded in June.

“We are seeking worthy students with great potential to be leaders who want to take control of their education,” said Cortona Director, Sharon Strauchs. “We are excited to make an investment in the next generation of leaders in science, technology and the arts.”

Breakfast at the Tower Club, Friday, May 13

An Informational Breakfast will be held Friday, May 13 from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the elegant Tower Club at Tyson’s One, 800 Tower Crescent Drive in Vienna. This gourmet breakfast is a free parent event for prospective full-time students. You will not only hear about our stellar program, but you will enjoy the spectacular view from the veranda of the Tower Club! Bring cameras!

Topics at the Tower Club parent breakfast will include:

• How students, like Cortona graduates, can get college academic scholarships of up to $110,000 regardless of need and without the stress of AP courses.
• How stress-free private education can help students attain the “Brass Ring” while keeping school from destroying a child’s spirit (and the parents’ nerves).
• How Cortona inspires students to be self-made and determine their own academic success.

Family Open House at Cortona Academy, Saturday, May 14

This family event on Saturday, May 14 from 1 to 3 p.m. will include lunch, a facility tour, meetings with faculty and an information session on full-time education as well as Summer Camp.

Students and their families will be welcomed with lunch while learning about one of the most successful, unique, stress-free education on the East Coast. Learn about our Summer Camps and find out how Cortona’s 100 percent college acceptance rate starts with parents insuring that their children are exposed to technology, STEM, arts, brilliant courses, teachers and study skills programs that are the backbone of their child’s motivation and future.
