Parke House Academy's vision includes the preparation and continual assessment of a well-balanced academic program with both competitive and cooperative learning experiences. Our preschool or pre-k and elementary school curriculum simultaneously promotes a healthy social and cognitive development. Parke House Academy students acquire the necessary skills to meet both present and future challenges.
Your child's preschool and elementary years are a special time of life, and while being the most formative years, they are also the most critical. From their first experience in a school setting, to the time they are ready to transition into middle school, Parke House Academy provides an exceptionally comprehensive education.
Educationally motivated students are admitted based on results of an evaluation, observation, and current enrollment levels. Consideration of the needs of the individual student and the academy's ability to meet those needs becomes an aspect of every admission decision. Due to of our low pupil-teacher ratio and the unique "home-like" environment, enrollment is limited.
Note that the tuition information displayed below only applies to the 2021 - 2022 school year. Rates are subject to change each year. Parke House Academy is now offering a one-year-old program for our littlest Jaguars. We recognize the importance of your child's first year of life and offer a program that stimulates their young minds in a nurturing environment.
Parke House Academy 's objective is to prepare and maintain a positive and stimulating learning environment that challenges each student to reach the height of educational excellence. The quality learning materials and equipment that have been selected enhance our exceptional curriculum. We are traditional in our content, but young and innovative in our style.

All 3 of our kids started at PHA in preschool and 2/3 children have graduated from the 5th grade as of this year, their baby brother is still in 1st grade. Regardless of location, resources, or any other factor I can think of, there is no other educational environment I would want for my children’s critical foundation for learning. PHA is the best kept secret in Winter Park, and I only say ‘secret’ because the classes are still small enough that each of my children have had a truly private school education with an enormous amount of 1-1 time and personalized instruction with each of their

We love Parke House Academy. The teachers and staff are so welcoming. We visited multiple schools before picking Parke House and many of them sent our daughter running for the door. But visiting Parke House she was instantly all smiles and excited to be there. She’s in Ms. Brumley’s 2 year old class and has grown so much socially and developmentally in just the few months she’s been attending. She jumps out of bed every morning excited to go to school!

Being a teacher and a parent at this school, I get to see both sides of the coin. The family feeling at PHA is evident when you walk through the door and small class sizes ensure your child will will receive a more personalized education. The teachers are encouraged to do as many hands on activities as possible with the curriculum to reach a variety of learning styles. This makes learning more enjoyable...for the student and the teacher! :)
I have one child go from pre-K through 5th grade and another still attending. My son was well prepared for middle school and left with a well-rounded education

I have had 4 children go through PHA and now my youngest is in Kindergarten - my kids all loved Parkehouse! Many of the teachers have been there for more than a decade sending their own children there - that tells you all! My older kids are in college now - they were well prepared for academic achievement and personal developement - and even went back to work at PHA. I would recommend Prakehouse to anybody who wants a loving and safe environment for their children going through these really precious years for their childhood. All thumbs up!

Fantastic school! We visited a lot of preschools before we chose this one. Even at the youngest class level, PHA is curriculum-based, not day care. We saw a lot of preschools and VPKs that were basically glorified day care keeping the kids entertained and fed, but not pushing education. At PHA, every inch of the school is covered in educational material and the kids are actively learning every day. Our son has been exposed to more material (both in amount and diversity) than we could have given him even if we stayed home to school him ourselves. And the teachers provide plenty of additional homework

The Parke House Academy is the best primary education school in Central Florida with it's low student-teacher ratio and academic excellence. As I have two daughters who have attended the school since PreSchool, seeing them test two to three grades higher than the standard public education year after year only confirms just how fantastic of a learning academy it is.
