Camps
Dates

Summer camp runs themed two-week sessions for ages 3–8, held across June and July, with registration opening in February. Contact the school for the current session list and dates.

Cost

Camp tuition is not posted online. The summer-camp page carries a Tuition & Fees heading with no rate table, and states only that registration opens in February. The school handbook sets the policies (a $50 administrative fee for a refund or a change requested 10 days or more before the camp start date) but no rates. Contact the school for current tuition.

Our take

Spanish Schoolhouse is a Spanish-immersion preschool on South Nolen Drive, part of a Texas chain that has run immersion programs since the early 2000s; this campus has served the Southlake area since 2006. The core idea is literal: the school day is conducted in Spanish, so children absorb the language by living the day in it rather than taking a Spanish "class." It's also a Christian-based school — it celebrates Christmas and Easter and the children say a prayer before lunch and nap.

Structurally it's a part-day preschool: instruction runs 9 AM to 2 PM, with extended care available from 7:30 AM to 6 PM, in 2- to 5-day options for children 18 months through pre-K, plus a kindergarten year. Enrollment is annual, with an Open Registration each February that fills first-come. A themed summer camp runs for ages 3–8, and there's a Kindergarten–5th grade after-school track (not currently running classes — worth confirming).

Who it's for: families who specifically want Spanish immersion for a young child and are comfortable with a part-day-plus-extended-care structure and an annual enrollment cycle that opens in February. If you want full-day daycare first and language second, the fit is looser; if immersion is the point, this is the most committed version of it in the area.

Local Tips

An immersion preschool on South Nolen Drive, minutes from Southlake Boulevard. The things worth knowing:

  • The day is genuinely in Spanish (immersion, not a class), and it's a Christian-based program with holiday celebrations and a prayer before meals.
  • Structurally it's part-day (9–2) with extended care to 6, so confirm the schedule matches your workday.
  • Enrollment is annual and the February Open Registration goes first-come at a set time, so mark it if you're aiming for a specific start.
  • Tuition and camp rates are published on the site (priced by age, days, and hours), with a registration fee and sibling/pre-pay discounts.
  • Communication home runs in English through newsletters and the Lillio app.
