La Petite Academy
La Petite Academy is a chain of early childhood education centers in the United States. They offer daycare, preschool, pre-kindergarten, and other early education programs for children aged six weeks to 12 years old.

La Petite Academy centers are often equipped with age-appropriate facilities and materials to support children’s development in areas such as language, literacy, math, science, and social skills.
Le Petit Meaning in English/La Petit Meaning
The masculine form of petite is petit (with no ‘e’), so the correct way to make la petite masculine is le petit (again, note that there is no ‘e’ at the end of petit).
So le petit literally means ‘the small’ in reference to something masculine. It can be used as an adjective to describe a thing, as in le petit ballon (the small ball).
Remember: the thing it is used to describe must be a masculine noun.
As a noun, le petit, denotes ‘the young or little one’. So, it could be used to refer to a child, or to something that is small/little.
It could also be used in a bit of an ironic sense, intending to put someone in their place in the sense of ‘young’un’.
