Welcome to Our School
Welcome to La Petite Academy in Ocoee, FL! I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Ms. Ericka Edwards. I bring to you over twelve years of Early Childhood Education experience. Most recently I was the Director of Education at a private pre-school in Lake Nona. I’ve made this transition to be closer to home. I am excitedly looking forward to getting to know you and your child. I hold a Child Development Associate credential and my Directors Credential along with over 12 years experience working in a classroom and in management.
