The KLA Schools of River Oaks is set to break ground in September, enrolling children from six weeks to four years old, according to the KLA Schools website.

The specifics

The school franchise’s curriculum is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, an educational philosophy that prioritizes children’s natural curiosity.

The main principles of the philosophy include respect, responsibility and community, which the school implements through child-focused curriculum and parent involvement.

“At KLA Schools, we believe children thrive when they can connect what they learn in the classroom to their everyday lives,” KLA Schools of River Oaks stated on its website. “In our preschool in Texas, students, teachers and families come together as a diverse, supportive community, growing, learning and inspiring one another.”

Before you go

The school offers full-time and part-time child care and maintains lower student-teacher ratios than the state requires, according to its website.

River Oaks residents are invited to the new location’s Sept. 10 groundbreaking ceremony at 12:30 p.m.
