HOURS OF OPERATION

Kids 'R' Kids of Franz Road is open from 6:00 am to 6:30 pm Monday through Friday. You are free to drop off and pick up at any time throughout out the day within our operating hours. We do suggest that children are in their classrooms no later than 8:30 am so they won’t miss important curriculum time or learning opportunities. We also ask that parents not drop children off at nap time in order to prevent disrupting sleeping children.

SECURITY

The safety of the children in our care is our top priority. In order to maintain an environment conducive to the learning and development of your child, we must first provide safe and secure facilities by instituting several safety features. Our building is equipped with a cipher lock at the front door and all parents and staff utilize a PIN number or thumbprint scan for entrance into the building. In addition, each parent is required to log into a computer at each drop-off and pick-up. State of the art monitoring systems utilize computer screens at the reception area for continued viewing of the entire property as well as having members of management walk the building throughout the day.

HEALTH & SAFETY

The safety and well-being of the children in our care, their families, and our staff are our highest priority and is at the core of our Kids ‘R’ Kids mission and policies. We have been the pioneers in providing the best in safety features and procedures, and we will continue to lead the way.

CURRICULUM

The lessons for each classroom are prepared by experts in the Early Childhood Field to ensure that your child is receiving a developmentally appropriate, well-rounded curriculum that meets state and national standards in every age group. Each week the classrooms follow theme-based units where children discover their world through hands-on activities, stories, exploration, and play. Specific learning goals are provided to the teachers with each unit so children can be evaluated on their progress.

In keeping with our mission of being The First Step to Higher Education® and our all-important role of fostering 21st-century learners, Kids ‘R’ Kids of Franz Road is proud to introduce STEAM AHEAD. Armed with the knowledge that the fields of science, technology, and engineering are expected to grow by leaps and bounds over the course of the coming years, we have developed an exciting new supplementary curriculum. STEAM AHEAD combines elements of science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics to expand the way our students not only learn, but also how they think about the world around them. When used in conjunction with a strong foundation from Kids ‘R’ Kids proprietary First Class Curriculum® and the brain development power of our exclusive Brain Waves™ curriculum, there are no limits to the possibilities our students’ futures might hold.

FACULTY

Teachers come to our school because they have a passion for children and teaching. These special individuals have chosen early childhood education as a career and not just a job. Our unique advancement program allows teachers to climb a multi-tiered career ladder at their own pace and are promoted through their hard work and dedication.

Training is also something that we take very seriously. A well-trained teacher is a confident teacher who has the proper skills to be the very best that they can be. Teachers are encouraged and incentivized to further their education in the early childhood field by enrolling in a CDA (Child Development Associate Credential) class. Employees who enroll in this class are given monetary compensation for completing the class and once the testing is complete.

EXTRACURRICULAR

There simply isn’t enough time in a working family's schedule to run children to all the extra activities that you would like them to be involved in. Realizing this, we have brought some of these programs to your child! These outside vendors teach a variety of classes so there is always one that your child will want to try. Contact us for a current list of all the extra-curricular classes that we offer.

PLAYGROUNDS

Our school offers separate, age-appropriate playgrounds for children to run off the boundless amounts of energy they have every day! Children can strengthen their large motor skills by pedaling bikes, climbing up ladders and running after each other. Imaginations soar as play structures turn into pirate ships or a castle for a princess. Playgrounds are kept up to date and are safety tested.
