What sets St. Francis Early Learning Academy apart from other early learning centers.
Christ-focused curriculum: As part of the Lafayette Catholic School System, we fully integrate faith every day at St. Francis. Our students learn about the lives of saints, have visits with our parish priests, and learn Catholic prayers.
Play-based: We live by the motto: Play hard, pray hard. On any given day at St. Francis you will find us dancing, laughing, and learning through play.
Outdoor Classroom: Thanks to the Gernhardt Family, we have a beautiful outdoor learning space where we can do fun projects like science experiments, make noise with musical instruments, and explore the world around us.
Full-Time Spots Available: At St. Francis, we offer many different programs. Our most popular is a full-day schedule that includes after school care. These fill-up quickly, so be sure to apply to secure your spot for the 2025-2026 school year today.
Level III Paths to Quality and On My Way PreK Certified: St. Francis takes extra steps to maintain high quality standards for our learning academy.
