Summer Program
Each summer, we offer a weekday camp for up to 12 weeks from June through August for children aged 2 - 10 years old with or without previous language experience. Students under 2 years who are currently enrolled in Toute Petite Section or Petite Section are welcome to join!
Families may enroll students for the entire summer or in select weeks of the program. Enrollment “By the Week” may not be available or may be delayed due to COVID-19.
Each Summer Camp theme spans across two weeks. Examples of themes include L’Ocean, Scooby Doo, and the Olympics. Throughout the day, students participate in themed activities which range from art and science projects to theater and music!
We continue to offer before and after Summer Camp care options to make our programs accessible to families.

Does my child need to speak French?
Non! Children do not need any previous language experience.
Do we have to be enrolled in La Petite Ecole’s Academic Year programs?
Students do not need to be enrolled at LPE during the school year to enroll in summer camp.
What is the enrollment deadline for Summer Camps?
We accept applications for summer camp until our classes are full. Some years, this happens very quickly! Some years, we are able to accept applications later than others. Email us to see how full our programs are, even if you’re still deciding!
Does your family need additional care, such as early morning drop off or after school care?
Supplemental Care
We strive to make our programs accessible to all families. We realize many families need additional services to access our programs.
Some families choose for their child to attend La Petite Ecole in the mornings only and need transportation to other child care options mid-day. Other families need at school care before or after school.
We provide these additional services during the academic year. These services are provided to students enrolled in daytime programs. Extra fees apply for all of these services. Parents may sign up ahead of time or use these services on a drop-in basis (upon approval). Please note - some services may be unavailable at certain times of the year, or due to circumstances beyond our control. See the Family Handbook in the Family Corner for detailed policies regarding enrollment, drop-in availability, fees, and invoicing.
