Inspection history

- 15 inspections
- 9 investigations
- 17 citations from these visits (risk level: High 4, Medium High 11, Medium 2)
A citation means an inspector found a rule wasn't met at the time of the visit; many are corrected the same day. Read the official record for details.
Below is every visit in the state's files from February 14, 2022 to April 20, 2026, newest first: 39 visits and 25 citations in all, so the totals can be higher than the 3-year counts above. An investigation is a visit to look into a report or complaint; many find no citations. Risk level is the level Texas HHSC assigns to each rule, from low to high, as published. Technical assistance means the inspector gave guidance on the rule. The state's file does not say whether the "correct-by" date is a deadline or the day the problem was fixed, so it can fall after the verified date or in the future.

The operation's operational policies address communication between parents and the school which includes parental notifications, methods of communication, classrooms being equipped with a phone for efficient communication between staff and management, open communication between parents and the school being integral to Kids R Kids, contacting teachers, contacting management, and emergencies. Health checks and illness and injury are also addressed in the operational policies. It is important staff and management are following their operational policies as well as minimum standards regarding communicating with parents when applicable. Information gathered in the investigation substantiated there was a lapse of communication regarding an incident where a pre-k aged child had an accident and was changed into clean underwear but no bottoms as it was believed the child did not have extra clothes. The child was present at the operation for two to three hours with their underwear being visible with no dress or shorts/pants to cover the underwear. While a caregiver initially reached out to management there was no follow up from the caregiver or management in regard to the situation with each other or with the parent. The parent was not notified.
