Building Rainbows Day School

From the Director:

Building Rainbows Pre-School is a gem serving the Northwest Houston and Cypress, Texas areas. Our parents come from all over the area and are willing to drive an extra 5-10 miles for the Building Rainbows experience. Our school, and staff are like a large family that enjoy being around one another. Our teacher tenure and continuity is unique to the child care industry. Our Lead Teachers have been with us for more than five years. Our families come primarily from word of mouth and we are now providing care for the children of many of our alumni. In fact, several of our prior students have come back to work with us as Teacher Aides.

From the Director:

We are truly a hands-on learning environment for young children. Scientific research supports learning through play as a natural way for children to gain knowledge and skills. At Building Rainbows, children are encouraged to question, create, build, and discover new things everyday.

Our teachers take the time to understand and get to know each child. Our curriculum allows us the flexibility to tailor content around the needs and interests of the children. All our teachers work together to create a solid foundation for every child.

Our goal is for children to feel strong and confident in their abilities and to approach life with joy, curiosity, and that "I Can" feeling

Each teacher has a schedule and routine that is followed everyday. A typical routine will consist of breakfast, morning group time, centers (science, math, sensory, cooking, art, music, language, etc), outside play, small group time, story time, lunch, nap, snack, large group time, centers, outside play.

We recognize that parents are the first and most important teachers in the lives of their children. A strong partnership between teacher and parent is our focus with the common goal being the well-being of each child. Our trained teachers send home curriculum calendars, parent letters, and notes from their child regularly. We have an open-door policy that allows our families to come to us with any concerns or suggestions.

We want the transition to be a positive experience for both parents and children. We encourage children to spend a few half days in the classroom prior to starting full time enrollment so that they become familiar with the school, teachers and daily routines.
