Welcome to La Petite Academy in Cedar Rapids, IA where we offer your child a bright beginning! My name is Kristy and I am the Academy Director. I have worked in early childhood education for more than 20 years.
As a leader in early childhood education and care, La Petite Academy has developed a unique set of curricula for Infants all the way up to Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten students. These curricula help children to develop critical-thinking skills and intellectual curiosity for success in kindergarten and beyond!
Our school participates in the Iowa Quality Rating System to demostrate our commitment to child development. We serve children ages six weeks to 12 years old and bus to Nixon Elementary School. Our teachers have a multitude of combined education and experience in the field and participate in training throughout the year to continue develop themselves to provide the highest quality of care a child can receive. We have several teachers with us for over 15 years and several more with their credentials and associates degrees in early childhood education.
Currently we are implementing multiple precautions to protect our families from the spread of COVID19. Masks are required by staff and parents, mandatory temperature checks are done on all children and staff at time of entering the building and surface cleanings are done multiple times throughout the day with DHS recommended cleaning products. We are currently limiting parents to the front area of the building and using our camera technology to conduct tours for new families.
We are excited to announce that this fall we will be live streaming through WatchMeGrow. Parents will be able to watch activities is real-time, anywhere on their computer, phone or tablet with secured access for additional peace of mind.
