Founding Family Enrollment
At Westcliff Early Learning Academy
Lock in Special Tuition Rates Through February 6, 2026
Westcliff Early Learning Academy (WELA) is proud to welcome families as we begin our very first year in Irvine. As we head into 2026, we’re excited to offer a limited-time opportunity for new families to join our Founding Family community and secure exclusive introductory tuition rates.
Because WELA opened later in 2025, Founding Family tuition rates have been extended through February 6 for families who enroll now and begin by the end of the month. This gives families additional flexibility—while still locking in our original pricing.
Why Families Are Choosing Westcliff Early Learning Academy
WELA is Irvine’s newest Montessori-, Reggio Emilia-, and nature-inspired early learning program, thoughtfully designed to support the whole child—academically, socially, and emotionally.
Our program features:
- Hands-on Montessori learning that builds independence
- Reggio Emilia–inspired projects that encourage creativity and collaboration
- Nature-based exploration that supports curiosity and confidence
- A nurturing environment led by caring, experienced educators
Founding Family Benefits
(Available Through February 6)
Families who enroll now and start by February 6 receive:
- Founding Family tuition rates
Our original introductory pricing, lower than upcoming 2026 rates - Locked-in base tuition
Your base rate remains in place for the duration of your child’s enrollment
(Typical annual increases of approximately 5% may still apply) - FREE dual-language immersion
A $250/month value included at no additional cost
This is more than short-term savings—it’s an investment that can benefit your family year after year.

The Montessori curriculum is based on the belief that children have an innate desire to learn and explore, and that they learn best when they are given the freedom to follow their own interests and passions.

The Reggio Emilia approach provides inspiration for project-based learning that is child-led. To determine the subject and direction of the project, teachers carefully observe and listen to the students’ inquiries, hypotheses, and theories and use them as a starting point for inquiry-based projects.

The Nature-based curriculum promotes whole-child development and environmental literacy. Elements of nature are built into the classroom environment.
