Welcome to Our School
Welcome to La Petite Academy in Pensacola, FL! My name is Philisa and I am the center director. I have a CDA, my 40 Hours Director Certificate and also a Technical College Credential. I have been working in early childhood education for 28 years. Drawing from my background, I can confidently say that our Infant Care, Preschool and other early educational programs are second to none!
Here at La Petite, we treat everyone involved like they are an extension of our own families. We have a warm and welcoming environment and maintain an open-door policy for anyone who would like to talk. We plan a lot of events for everyone to participate in to ensure our families meet each other and develop strong relationships.
We have long-term staff members who are dedicated to our children and families. More than half of our teachers have more than five years of teaching experience. All of our teachers receive monthly training as well as ongoing training provided by the state.
