Both of our children started there at just three months old and are now in the school-age classroom. We will always cherish the memories we've made with our school family, from fall festivals and gingerbread house parties to game nights, graduations, field trips and more. Even more meaningful are the relationships we've built with the incredible teachers and staff along the way. The team at this school is genuinely passionate about what they do. They provide us with the comfort and confidence of knowing our children are safe, supported, and loved every day in their care. Thank you, La Petite Academy of Merritt Island, for everything you have done and continue to do for our family!

I currently moved back to Florida from Chicago. I have a 2 year old son that has been in head start…read moreback home so of course I was looking into getting him in schooling here in Florida. I scheduled a tour for La Petite Academy Merritt Island. Juan who greeted us was very nice and professional and turned out to be the one to give us the tour. As he was walking us through he explained every room and set up. The first thing I noticed while walking through was that it wasn't as diverse as I was hoping for. Then when we got to the class that my son would be in, there was four children in there and three of them was laying on the floor with dirty, runny noses and playing in their snot. Huge turn off and red flag. The part that confirmed it for me that my son would not be going there was how the teacher (or whatever they're called because she definitely wasn't a teacher) was looking at my son like he was a foreign object. That was a red flag for me and further let me know that she wasn't used to seeing or working with black children. She didn't utter two words to him nor did she interact with him. Literally just stared at him. At that point it was time to end the tour because it was no point in continuing on.

Wow, are we glad we came here! Our kids started here during the Covid shutdowns of Spring 2020…read more The kids love it and are excited about going to school. The teachers are great and truly dedicated to helping guide the kids toward learning opportunities and making them interested in learning. The school does go a bit off the Montessori plan by having some testing and homework, BUT having grown up attending a Montessori school I think this is something that they should all do anyway to help prepare kids for more standardized school systems, so I am in favor of it. Obviously, parents are parents and can be quite positive or negative (and very vocal) about their experience at school. The previous reviews were left for the previous school, which totally changed about three and a half years ago. The lady who owns the school now truly cares about the place, ranging from new facilities to new materials. Honestly, this school is one of the things that is keeping us in the Melbourne area...the teachers, the students, the other parents...everything is exactly what we want for our kids during these pre-K through elementary years.
