Wilcox Academy Featured in Forbes

Wilcox Academy of Early Learning is honored to be featured in a recent Forbes article highlighting the urgent need for early learning solutions and the meaningful impact early childhood education centers are making across the country.

The article showcases Wilcox Academy’s growth from two vacant lots in Central City, New Orleans, into a thriving early learning campus serving more than 240 children, along with 40 school-aged students during the summer months. For nearly two decades, Wilcox Academy has remained committed to building more than classrooms—focusing instead on strengthening families, supporting educators, and investing in long-term community development.

As Founder Rochelle Wilcox shared in the feature:

“This is how you responsibly transform neighborhoods: one investment, one school, one family at a time.”

We are grateful for this national recognition and proud to be part of the broader conversation on early childhood education and community revitalization.
