I have loved having my son here. He has learned so much and I know his teachers really care about him!

Enrolled Family

Amazing, caring, compassionate teachers and staff. They truly care about my child and share stories about him during pick up and drop off. I have absolutely no concerns while he is at school. He has many of the same teachers as my older son, who attended 9 years ago!! The app is informative, easy to use and a great way to get updates about my child throughout the day.

Enrolled Family

Keeping parents updated with bright wheel is a plus to me as I get to know what happened in school and what is expected of the kids by on daily basis. Teachers friendliness, communication and active listening when talking to them.

I've worked in early childhood education for 29 years and and truly believe this is where I was meant to be. I've developed a strong staff dedicated to the children in their care. I love meeting new people and strive to always be available to parents in case they have questions or just want to chat.

For over 26 years I've worked in the education field and I believe the first years in early education set a foundation for learning. Whether it's supporting the teachers or working with the children along with their families, every interaction is important and has meaning.

Each day at La Petite Academy is filled with opportunities for your child to learn, play, explore, and grow. Children explore learning centers, participate in small- and large-group activities, spend time outdoors, and enjoy plenty of opportunities for choice and play. Meals, snacks, and rest are also built into the day, creating a familiar routine that helps children feel comfortable while keeping each day fun and engaging. Daily activities are designed with your child’s age and developmental stage in mind.

Our teachers regularly observe your child’s development and use those insights to plan learning experiences that support their individual needs and growth. Each child has an individual portfolio that grows with them as they move from one age group to the next, capturing their learning, milestones, and accomplishments along the way. Teachers use developmental checklists, work samples, photos, and observations to understand how your child is progressing and identify opportunities to build new skills. Families stay connected every step of the way through SproutAbout updates, family-teacher conferences, and daily conversations with their child’s teachers.

Moving to a new classroom is an exciting milestone. Children gradually visit their new classroom, meet their teachers, and become familiar with new routines before the transition. Teachers work together to support continuity, while families receive regular updates throughout the process.
