LaValle Private School

LaValle Private School in Fairfield, which is celebrating its 30th year of operation, will have new offerings in computer science, world studies and foreign language. This year there will be weekly childcare programs, early education programs for advanced preschoolers and advanced pre-kindergarten children with other enrichment programs for school-age children.

“Our fine arts program has been expanded as part of the daily academic curriculum,” said Administrator Kim Allen. “Ongoing and advanced study of composers, classical compositions, fine arts and artists will be added to individualized study plans. Spanish will also be offered on a daily basis as part of the education curriculum.”

In an effort to include all significant family members involved in a student’s life, it is changing the former family support group, LaValle PTO, to the LaValle Family Alliance to offer a stronger link between home and school. Plans are in place to increase classroom visitation, open houses, grandparent visits, extended family time, social events, family inservice training and additional family-teacher conferences.

“Through this newly formed alliance, the student will benefit in a positive and direct manner,” she said. “We encourage all family members to become active in our new family support organization.”
