4.9 out of 5 stars
I've had a great experience. All the teachers, even those that don't teach my daughter, know my daughter and greet us. They treat her with such respect and have made it easy on me. Drop-offs are hard with my daughter, but the staff have come up with creative ways to make it easy and painfree for everyone. My daughter literally loves school and even on the weekends asks if she can go see her teachers

We love la petite. We have needed something just like this for our daughter and we are happy with everything this school provides, food, care and great teachers who listen to you and work with you.
Enrolled Family
I've had all 4 of my children attend LPA in the past 10 years. Currently my son (4) is registered and has had a great experience. The teachers are patient and understanding, especially with my very rambunctious and active little boy. I know most of the teachers and can chat with them easily. They all have a great personality and a love for caring for children! I love how they host after school

hour parties. From End of Summer, Halloween, and Christmas parties to movie nights to give parents a break. I think they're doing a great job!

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.
