Welcome to Coit Creative Arts Academy (PK-5)

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dr. Lametria Johnson Eaddy, and I am the proud principal of Coit Creative Arts Academy. My passion for education has brought me to multiple places throughout the country, but over the last eight years I have found my true home in Grand Rapids and at Coit. Having served as an English teacher for many years, I understand how important it is to make learning accessible, creative, and fun. That is why I believe so much in what we are doing at Coit: infusing creative arts in every subject, in every classroom, every day. As both an educator and a parent, I can assure you that all scholars benefit from learning this way. In fact, my own daughter is a former Coit Creative Arts Academy scholar for this reason!  

With over 25 years of professional experience in education, I feel incredibly prepared to lead your child to new heights at Coit. It is my personal belief that all scholars deserve every chance to do and become their personal best, and I look forward to working with you to support your child(ren) in that pursuit. Join me!
