Since 1985

Celebrating 40 Years of Excellence

Founded in 1985, The Learning Center Preschool is a Gold-Seal educational facility accredited by FACCM that provides a year-round program to children from the age of 2 through graduation at the age of 5 or 6. Under new management since 2023, the school offers students a daily French enrichment option thanks to a merger with Le Petit Prince, The French International School of Boca Raton. Our dedicated staff members at TLC-LPP bring the joy of learning to our students using the Creative Curriculum™. Our VPK program is highly rated and we partner with the Early Learning Coalition to accept School Readiness.
