Welcome to Our School
Welcome to La Petite Academy in Pelham, AL! This facility opened in 1988 with the goal of providing the best early education for families in the Shelby County area. We are an Alabama Quality rated school. We service all surrounding areas including Helena, Alabaster and Calera!
My name is Yasheta, academy director, and I have been with the company for 15 years. I have been in the early education field for over 20 years and was awarded the District People Leadership Award in 2016 and the Above and Beyond award in 2018.
Our facility is a leader in early education, providing programs for infants and preschoolers through school-age children. Our teachers are highly trained and personally get to know and understand each child, to recognize their strengths, skill levels, and areas for improvements.
We now offer the Grow Fit Yoga elective program, which is a fun, creative way to teach children yoga poses and cooperative games that develop healthy bodies and healthy minds. We also have a mobile app that allows us to send photo and status updates on the activities your child is engaged in, events, alerts and more, all sent straight to your email or mobile device.
