As a nation, state, school district, and early childhood center, the road to re-entry has not been as clear-cut as in years past. There is still much that is unknown and what is known changes daily. What is known and that will not be forgotten is that the Early Excellence Academy remains a vital part of the Tomball ISD culture and we are here to support you and the needs of your family.

With that being said, the Early Excellence Academy will open its doors to students and families on September 8, parallel with campus start dates. Students will be returning to procedures, social circles, and academic demands. During this transition, our children will need US to maintain collaborative relationships so that each child's development can foster. I am confident we will make great things happen for a successful and safe start to the school year, because high quality learning experiences, under any circumstance, is our business.

“Why can't EEA open when other daycares are open?”

The Early Excellence Academy is a licensed childcare center regulated by the Department of Health and Human Services. Health and Human services protects children by regulating, monitoring, investigating, and informing all childcare operations in order to protect the health and well-being of every child placed in care. Most daycares are franchises which are independently owned and operated. The franchisee ultimately has control and makes the determination for the path the organization takes. The Early Excellence Academy is not a franchise. We are overseen by a governing body. That governing body is our public school district and its school board. Together, they make strategic decisions to develop and improve the Academy as a whole.

This detail is what makes EEA different than the typical daycare. This difference is what sets us apart. This difference ultimately provides rich experiences and resources to EEA students that are nowhere near that of any other daycare. It is what makes EEA the best early education center in Tomball.

Together our district and our school board chose safety; safety of students and your colleagues.

In addition, Public Health orders were signed in late July that required all public and non-religious private schools in Harris County to remain closed to in-person instruction until at least September 8. Because we are funded with public funds, we are associated with public schools and would need to halt in person instruction.

I understand the hurdles ahead. As a parent of a toddler who attends EEA, the situation is not ideal. The hectic pace of parents’ lives pushes the popularity and necessity of daycare services. I appreciate you all for your continued support of the Early Excellence Academy despite imperfect circumstances.

See you all soon!
