Texas School Readiness
Shortly after opening in September 2008, we applied for the Texas School Readiness Certification. The Texas School Readiness certification is administered by the University of Texas and it certifies preschool education programs that effectively prepare their students for kindergarten. We expect to receive the results from the 2008/2009 school year by Mid-2010.
In September 2009, we expanded our partnership with UT. Our Pre-K lead teachers are currently taking part in a two year training and mentoring program. This exceptional training provided by UT complements the extensive training that Kids `R` Kids provides.
In addition to Texas School Ready, we are currently going through a program review with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), which is the same organization that accredits elementary, middle and high schools along with some colleges and universities. Our goal is to have the SACS accreditation by the fall of 2010. we are also going through a comprehensive self study and program review with the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) and we expect to receive the NAEYC accreditation in 2011.
