La Petite École De Chicago

Description provided by the business.At our full-time French preschool, children thrive in a fun and immersive environment. Our native French teachers follow the French curriculum and use play-based learning to teach math, science, language, and more – all in French. Children don't need to have prior knowledge of French. Our goal is to ignite a love for learning and help each child flourish as they become fluent in a new language and learn about a new culture. To accomplish our mission, we provide a multi-level classroom environment to allow each child to progress at their speed.
Openings Soon
We have several spots in our preschool group for 3 and 4 year olds. We also have several spots for various primary school grades.

Parent Reviews
Our son is 4, turning 5, and has had a tremendous leap in his French language abilities in the 6 months here at LPEC
We have had a wonderful experience at the school. The classes are small, the teachers are outstanding, and it is a very joyful place for the children to learn. There are not many opportunities to give young children a bilingual experience, and this is a very meaningful one. We feel fortunate to have found it.
