Texas School Ready

What is Texas School Ready!™?

Texas School Ready!™ is a program that certifies preschool education classrooms that effectively prepare their students for kindergarten.  This certification then provides a means for parents to make an informed decision concerning their child`s early educational years.

Texas School Ready!™ is based on the actual linking between:

• the quality instructional practices that must be in place in a preschool program to get children ready for kindergarten AND
• the children actually achieving scores showing they are on track in the areas of reading and social skills when they go kindergarten.

   

  The Texas School Ready! certification system was created as a result of the Texas Senate Bill 23 in 2003. The purpose of the certification system was to identify programs that were successful in integrating quality instructional practices and actually tracking the children’s scores who left those programs to measure success in areas of reading and social skills when they went to kindergarten.
