Recent parent reviews
I am grateful every day for La Petite École. Not only did 2 years of French immersion give my daughter such an imaginative and creative foundation for exploration—and French proficiency—but also the fact that she has friends (LPE alumni) at her new kindergarten above, below, and all around her. A truly incredible, expansive and foundational experience. Thank you Virgile, Ami, et Nolwenn.
Monique EricksonJun 14, 2026As an anglophone parent, I was eager but apprehensive to send my toddler to a language immersion school. Yet, La Petite Ecole greatly exceeded my expectations. I feel so very fortunate that this was my son's first educational experience. The teachers are fabulous and the instruction is fluid enough to provide children with learning based on their current interests and needs. After two years, my son, who had never been exposed to the French language, comprehends and converses well with teachers and peers. He often plays in French at home. It has been a wonderful experience for my son and for our family. I highly recommend La Petite Ecole if you are considering a dual language program.

What ages does La Petite Ecole care for?

Which school district is La Petite Ecole in?

Does this page show inspection results for La Petite Ecole?
- No. New York's public child care roster carries no violation or inspection fields, and no separate statewide dataset of them was found, so nothing here reflects La Petite Ecole's inspection history either way. Look the provider up in the OCFS child care search to read its violations and whether they were corrected.
