Celebree School Debuts in Texas: Announces 7 Signed Franchise Agreements

2023-03-23T09:37:03-04:00March 23rd, 2023|Tags: , , , , |

Early Childhood Education Franchise Breaks into New State as Demand for Childhood Education Rises.

DALLAS — Celebree School, a leader in early childhood education that provides infant and toddler care, preschool, before and aftercare, and summer camp programs, is capitalizing on growth potential in Texas as demand for early childhood education continues to rise. The brand announces seven franchise agreements in development across the state, plus an additional 10 schools under future development agreements. All seven schools – across Austin, Dallas, and Houston – are projected to open by the end of 2024.

Texas leads the nation in population growth, according to new data from the U.S. Census Bureau. The state is now home to 30 million people – adding roughly half a million new residents since the summer of 2021. With that comes an increasingly large demand for families seeking premier early childhood education, and Celebree looks to fill that void.

First to open will be Celebree School of Dallas Arts District, projected to open in fall of 2023 at 2400 Bryan Street. Owner of this school is local Mockingbird Park resident, Mindi McClure. Prior to Celebree School, McClure spent the last three decades in investment and commercial banking. Ready for a career change, she sought out entrepreneurial opportunities where she would be able to make a powerful impact for children and families.

“I was eager to pursue the franchise opportunity and be the first franchisee to bring the Celebree brand to Texas,” said McClure. “Texas has a lot of growth, and I look forward to truly building a community of families. That’s what Celebree is all about, and we hope to bring that culture to life while providing the highest quality of childcare.”

On the heels of this opening will be growth in the below markets:

  • Dallas
    • Three Celebree Schools opening summer/fall 2024
  • Houston
    • Two Celebree Schools opening summer 2024
  • Austin
    • One Celebree School opening summer 2024

Company leadership sees vast growth potential across Texas with opportunities to add 31 schools across Dallas, 28 schools in Houston, and eight schools in the Austin DMA.

To support the brand’s hyper-growth across the state, Celebree School has announced a corporate hub strategy that will bring corporate schools to Dallas by the end of 2023 and Houston by the end of 2024. The Dallas corporate hub lease was signed on March 15, 2023 at 5459 La Sierra Drive.

As Celebree School seeds the market with a corporate hub, the brand will have the opportunity to truly become a local expert. This will play a critical role in recruitment, enrollment, and training as part of franchisee onboarding and opening. These development efforts contribute to Celebree School’s aggressive expansion goal of opening 150 new schools over the next three years.

Today, Celebree has 26 corporate schools, 14 franchise locations, and 90-plus in various stages of future development. As franchise development continues to surge, Celebree School is looking for qualified and engaged individuals seeking single and multi-unit opportunities who are involved in their community, have a passion for childhood education, and are eager to explore the world of franchising.

Celebree School lives by its promise to Grow People Big and Small, and was founded on the belief that success in early childhood development is equal parts curriculum and a connection that extends beyond the classroom to address the needs of the whole child and the whole family. Each Celebree School is a village made up of parents, children, and educators with a focus on curriculum-based care that prepares your child for kindergarten and beyond.

Programs are available for children six weeks to 12-years-old with unique curriculums designed to develop positive social skills and values while allowing children to learn about their world through age-appropriate play, projects, and activities. Care is available part-time or full-time, and parents are allowed to drop in and visit at any time.

When franchisees invest with Celebree School, they’re investing in an organization with a strong culture, solid systems, and a proven business model backed with 28-plus years of experience in providing exceptional early childhood education.

“In partnering with Celebree School, I’ve seen how children can blossom when the right people provide each child with a safe and nurturing environment that fosters, growth, exploration and learning,” Skidmore said. “I want to continue creating exceptional experiences for the families who trust us with their children, and I also want to continue to create opportunities for local educators to partner with a leadership team that is passionate about helping teachers pursue advancement in the field of education. Operating these Celebree Schools has introduced me to the phenomenal community of teachers, advocates, and parents across Baltimore who believe in the power of education. I am honored to work with and support our extended family every day.”

Early Childhood Education Franchise Revs Up Strategic Development, Set to Open at Metropolitan Park. 

LUTHERVILLE, Md.Celebree School, a leader in early childhood education will join an impressive roster of retail partners at Metropolitan Park for Amazon’s second headquarters in Arlington, Virginia.

Celebree School of National Landing is slated to open Spring 2023 and will provide infant and toddler care, and preschool programs. The customized programs will address the physical, social, emotional, and academic needs of children while adhering to Virginia’s early education standards.

Over the past eight months, Amazon has announced several local small businesses that will open their doors next year at HQ2, including Conte’s Bike Shop, District Dogs, HUSTLE, RAKO Coffee, Social Burger, and South Block. As development continues, Amazon now adds to this impressive roster with the addition of Celebree School of National Landing, Good Company Doughnuts & Cafe, Glo30, and Peruvian Brothers – all set to help enrich the growing community.

Amazon hopes that as it continues to bring more small businesses to the area, HQ2 can be a destination for all the important areas of life, whether that be work, play, family time, or any of the moments in between.

Owners of Celebree School National Landing, Kate and Brian Mulcahy, are eager to open this location, marking their second Celebree School. Together, the husband-wife team opened their first Celebree School in Tysons Corner, VA in September 2021. Not even one year later, their classrooms are almost full, and they are changing the lives of families in the community.

“We strive every day to make parents and students feel as comfortable as possible, as well as provide an unparalleled experience for our teachers,” said Mulcahy. “Partnering with Amazon will allow us to reach a larger subset of the region and provide more quality early childhood education to more families.”

“The spotlight that Amazon’s presence puts on the community is so valuable, and the new residents it will attract will strengthen the fibers of the community,” added Mulcahy. “Amazon’s commitment to excellence and service mirrors our own values, making it an even more exciting venture.”

Celebree School lives by its promise to Grow People Big and Small™, and was founded on the belief that success in early childhood development is equal parts curriculum and a connection that extends beyond the classroom to address the needs of the whole child and the whole family. Each Celebree School is a village made up of parents, children, and educators while providing curriculum-based care that prepares your child for kindergarten and beyond.

With a 25-plus-year history of providing superior early childhood education, Celebree School delivers a stable, secure learning environment that helps children develop a lifelong love of learning. Programs at Celebree School of National Landing will be available for children six weeks to preschool age with unique curriculums designed to develop positive social skills and values while allowing children to learn about their world through age-appropriate play, projects, and activities. Care is available part time or full time and parents are allowed to drop in and visit at any time.

“We’re honored to continue to help brilliant entrepreneurs like the Mulcahys actualize their business goals,” said Richard Huffman, Founder and CEO of Celebree School. “As we continue to expand our brand’s footprint through franchising, it’s more important than ever that we partner with local community leaders who have a passion for early childhood education. Bringing Celebree School to Amazon HQ2 gives me immense pride and joy as we continue to drive our mission forward.”
