Little People's School was founded over 40 years ago by certified elementary teachers who were dedicated to the education of young children. The tradition carries on, as we at LPS believe that children learn best when involved physically and intellectually in their learning environment.
Here, our children enjoy a small child to teacher ratio which provides an optimal opportunity to learn basic concepts in math and literacy through age appropriate, integrated programs of art, science, literature, music, social studies, character development and of course, play!

Parents are required to sign up for summer camp weeks desired and are responsible for payment for all weeks chosen on the enrollment form regardless of attendance. This is nice for many of our Florida families who vacation in the summer! The Summer Camps will consist of two age groups. The Twos and young Threes will be in one camp group and the VPK graduates and fours will make up the second group.
Our tuition payments are based on a 180 day school year. The school year tuition is broken into monthly installments that do not necessarily reflect the number of days attended in that particular month. Tuition payments are due the first day of each month. A late fee equaling 10% of the monthly tuition payment will be assessed if paid after the 5th of each month.
