LAS VEGAS — Shenker Academy , one of Las Vegas’ premier private early childhood schools, is pleased to announce a rare opportunity for families: limited openings are now available for children from six weeks through kindergarten. Known for its nurturing environment and academic excellence, Shenker Academy typically maintains a waiting list, making this an exceptional chance to join its vibrant learning community.
Located in the heart of Summerlin, Shenker Academy offers programs that combine traditional academics with innovative, hands-on learning. The curriculum emphasizes language development—including American Sign Language (ASL), Spanish, and Hebrew—STEM education, and the arts, all within exceptionally small teacher-to-student ratios that ensure personalized attention at every age level: 1:4 for infants through 18 months, 1:6 for age 2, 1:8 for age 3, 1:10 for age 4, and a kindergarten class supported by 3 teachers for just 14 students—far below the required 1:13 ratio.
“Our mission has always been to cultivate confident, compassionate, and capable learners,” said Ginger Liess, Head of School. “We’re excited to welcome new families who share our commitment to holistic, values-based education.”
In early 2026, Shenker Academy will unveil a major campus expansion featuring three state-of-the-art classrooms and a versatile multipurpose room—further enhancing its dynamic learning environment.
