Frequently Asked Questions
What are your hours of operation?

​
How Do I Enroll?
Guardians should email LittleBrahmaBarn@gmail.com with interest. We recommend students being on the list from the time parents know they are pregnant (yes! our list is that long).
​
Are meals included in my tuition?
Yes! Aside from Fridays when we have "Lunch Box Day."
​
Do I have to be a Christian to attend your school?
While we run as a Christian owned program with Christian Values and Bible Lessons, anyone is welcome at LBB! All students watch the same bible videos and songs and are encouraged to pray before meals, but none of it is forced. We believe first it is our job to love all children and give them the best start at school. They will know Jesus through our LOVE most of all. We also feel that specific religious teaching is a personal choice all families must make for their own children but we can model the love of Jesus by offering care, compassion, and having a servants heart for all families.
​
​When is my tuition due?
Tuition is paid monthly as with most private school settings. Student's pay the full month of Tuition August - May no matter the days attended or scheduled. Summer Tuition is more a la carte and that information is sent home in May. Tuition is late after the second day of the month ahead of care.
​
Do you provide a curriculum?
Yes! Jacqueline Traweek has a Master's Degree in Education and has worked with the Texas Education Agency to help with the 2022 PreK Guidelines. Our toddlers and middle group follow a Scope and Sequence based on age appropriate precursor skills to our Prek Group, and also use Clifford's My Big World Periodicals for enrichment.

Do you potty train the children?
Potty training is not a school only skill. We work closely with all students and their families in the Bucket Calves to get their kiddo ready to move up. Students who start in our older classes must be potty trained prior.
​
​What kind of training do the teachers have?
All of our teachers are trained in First Aid and CPR as well as other areas of child development. All staff members must complete at least 24 hours per year in training as well as pass a criminal history background check.
Are children required to be current on their vaccines in order to attend?
No. We do not require all children to be vaccinated, and a copy of current shot record must be submitted on or before the first day of attendance. If you choose to delay or not have your child immunized a signed affidavit must be on file and kept up to date.
Are appointments required to tour the school?
Yes, please call first so that we can schedule a good time to visit as sometimes of the day are hectic and we want to give you all the time you need for your tour.
