WELCOME TO
LITTLE SCHOLARS ACADEMY
OF LAKE NORMAN
A Reggio Emilia Inspired Preschool
OUR PHILOSOPHY
At Little Scholars Academy of Lake Norman, we are inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education. This unique approach to education offers an environment geared towards the child and holds an image of children as being strong, powerful, rich in potential, and an integral members of the community. Children should be treated with the same respect as adults - honoring their choices and inspirations. We believe this approach allows your child to reach maximum potential, nourishing their curiosities and inquiring minds, and guides them in growing respect for their own self and the world around them.
