Follow on Google News | Kids ‘R’ Kids® Learning Academies Partners with Teaching Strategies to Assess Student SuccessInternational Child Care Franchise Teams up with Nationally Approved Early Education Resource Company to Measure its Students’ Progress and Kindergarten-Readiness
By: Kids 'R' Kids Learning Academies “We know from our teachers, franchisees and currently enrolled parents that Brain Waves™ has been extremely well received by our students,” explained David Vinson, Director of Operations for Kids ‘R’ Kids International. “However, to truly measure its success, we wish to employ assessments that are specifically engineered to align with the various levels of our Brain Waves and First Class curriculums. Above and beyond that, we know that these assessments will also play a key role in helping us identify potential learning, social and behavioral challenges early on that a student may need to overcome throughout their educational career. We will be able to develop individual learning plans to help them climb to the next level while they are in our care, and these assessments could help their future kindergarten teacher understand how they learn, as well. Parents will receive regular updates regarding their child’s development and progress so they can work side by side with their Kids ‘R’ Kids teachers to ensure that their child is making headway socially and academically. Our new relationship with Teaching Strategies is another shining example of Kids ‘R’ Kids’ dedication to providing the best in early education to our students in order to promote a lifelong love of learning and set them up for success in kindergarten and beyond.” Teaching Strategies is the ideal partner for Kids ‘R’ Kids in this endeavor. Like Kids ‘R’ Kids Learning Academies, Teaching Strategies is nationally approved by AdvancED™ - the global leader in advancing educational excellence through accreditation and school improvement. In addition to providing parents with feedback through regular student assessments, Kids ‘R’ Kids Learning Academies is launching a Parent Portal to grant enrolled parents a backstage pass to their child’s daily life inside the Kids ‘R’ Kids classroom. The Parent Portal provides electronic reports of everything from naptime and diaper changes to educational accomplishments and upcoming events to take school-to-parent communications to an entirely new level. The system is also designed to serve as a secure one-stop-shop for photos and information, plus access to closed circuit cameras in the classroom that are accessible via computer, tablet or smartphone so parents can feel connected to their children throughout the school day.
