About Our Preschool Academy
Rainbow Academy for Little Scholars is a long-standing, time-tested preschool with year-round early education offerings. We serve families with children one to six years of age, fall through spring, and expand our services in summer with day camp for children up to age 12.
Our curriculum was built by our founders, Linda and Mario LaGrotte, with a play-based, developmentally appropriate early childhood program aligned with today's early learning standards and parents' expectations. What sets Rainbow Academy apart is our focus on small group instruction, outdoor exploration, gardens, and nature walks alongside elaborate indoor spaces.
We believe in franchising because we believe there's more to offer aspiring early education franchise owners. There's growing demand across the country for small, nurturing environments that engage children to imagine, grow and learn while they play, create and explore the world around them. These are tenets that have defined us for nearly 50 years, and they provide our franchisees with a foundation built for growth.
