Valmonte Early Learning Academy (VELA) offers learning enrichment in many areas as well as story time and play time. The staff partners with parents and invites them to take a role in their children's preschool education. Children can attend on a full or part-time basis. VELA is adjacent to Valmonte Elementary School. Children bring a sack lunch each day. While this is a public school program, it is not free. Check with the school for current fees.
