The grass is greening, flowers are blooming and birds are chirping, all sure signs that spring is just around the corner and what better way to begin the season than with a spring fling? La Petite Academy locations nationwide will hold “Spring Fling” events April 3-7 to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Students, families and community members are invited to participate in festivities that include music, dancing, games and refreshments.
La Petite Academy is among the nation’s largest privately held early childhood education companies. La Petite Academy will also be raising funds for Make-A-Wish with each student enrollment during the month of March.
