Welcome to our Sun Prairie, Wisconsin La Petite Academy! My name is Mrs. Mackenzie and I am the academy director. I have been in the early childhood field for more than 20 years. I enjoy building relationships with families and watching the many milestones the children master from the Infant program through School-Age.
Our school offers part-time, full-time and flexible scheduling programs for children ages 6 weeks through 11 years old. All of our education programs have been designed exclusively for us. The curriculum we offer are Learn As We Grow, STEM, Spotlight on Phonics, Tech and Tinker and new this year- the Prep Lab, to help support virtual and distant learning for 4k and School-Agers. Parents have access to the brightwheel App to communicate with their classrooms, receive live updates and soon will be able to watch live stream technology of their child's classroom with WatchMeGrow.
As a national early childhood center, we take health and safety, training and education seriously. We are closely following the guidelines set by local Public Health Department, State Licensing and the CDC. Many safety practices have been implemented but a few include:
~ All children, staff and visitors have temperatures taken and a wellness check upon arrival
~ All Staff and adults must wear face coverings
~ Handwashing upon arrival and many times throughout the day
~ Classroom cleaning and sanitation practices have been enhanced
All Teachers are certified in CPR and first aid and have various levels of early childhood education. Our center is equipped with a security system that only allows current families and staff to enter the building during our hours of operation. We value our families as partners and make it a priority to keep them involved and knowledgeable of all aspects of their child's education.
