Inspection history, last 24 months

May 12, 2026: Inspection

1 citation.

High risk The center must have a fire inspection by the local fire marshal before opening and every 12 months after.

State rule 746.5101(a) (minimum standards for child-care centers): "Annual Fire Inspection - Before Initial Permit Issued and Every 12 Months"

Apr 1, 2026: Investigation of a self-report

1 citation.

High risk Caregivers must supervise every child at all times: close enough to step in, and always aware of what each child is doing.

State rule 746.1205(a)(4) (minimum standards for child-care centers): "Supervision ensures each child's safety, well-being, including physical proximity and auditory or visual awareness of each child's on going activity"

Inspector's note: This standard was tasked over for this investigation and found to be deficient. It was determined that a child was left unsupervised in the classroom restroom while their class left to another area of the school. The child was still in the preschool area and was escorted back to her group in a timely manner.

Corrected Apr 9, 2026, verified by the state Apr 14, 2026. The inspector gave technical assistance (advice on how to comply).

What the risk levels mean

Texas gives every rule a weight from High to Low, based on the risk to children when it is broken. A citation is one rule found not met at one visit. How to read a Texas inspection report.
