Help us welcome Mrs. Marisol Cuburu to Our Pre-K Team!
We are excited to welcome Mrs. Marisol Cuburu to our teaching team! She will be joining Mrs. Kayla as a Co-Teacher in the Pre-K classroom, bringing a wealth of experience in early childhood education, curriculum development, and classroom management.
Mrs. Marisol holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Education and is currently pursuing a Master’s in Public Policy, along with certifications in neurolearning and child development. With over 10 years of experience—including roles as a Pre-K Teacher and Infants Lead Teacher—she has a strong background in early learning and language immersion. She specializes in incorporating Spanish naturally and engagingly into the classroom, making learning both fun and interactive.
ARRIVALS & ATTENDANCE
We kindly request your understanding regarding the importance of your child's regular attendance to meet their need for consistency and order. It is essential for children to arrive before the educational portion of the program which begins at 8:45 am each day. This practice minimizes disruptions in the classroom, establishes a consistent routine, and aids in preparing children for the eventual transition to kindergarten.
Ensuring timely attendance enables your child to fully engage in classroom lessons and other valuable learning experiences. Missing these lessons can deprive children of crucial learning opportunities and disrupts both students and teachers who are already engaged in the day's lessons. Your cooperation in maintaining a punctual attendance is greatly appreciated.
STUDENT DROP OFF CUT OFF TIME
Parents are kindly requested not to bring children in late, except in the case of a doctor's appointment, emergency, or special family occasion. Should you require a late drop-off time beyond 8:45 am, please be sure to communicate with our staff by sending a message. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
CHILDREN’S WATER BOTTLES
Please send a spill-proof water bottle with your child each day. Make sure it is thoroughly washed and refilled before bringing it back to school. Thank you for your cooperation!
IMMUNIZATIONS & EXEMPTIONS
Each child enrolled or admitted to A New Day CDC must meet applicable immunization requirements specified by the Texas Department of Health Immunization Requirements in Texas elementary and Secondary Schools and Institutions of Higher Education. This requirement applies to all children in the child-care home from birth to 14 years of age.
The State requires that all records must be on file with A New Day Child Development Center within one week after the date of admission and must be signed by a healthcare professional who has examined the child within the past year.
If these forms are not submitted within one week of starting school, your child may not return until forms are submitted.
Health status information is critical to ensuring that the individual needs of children are met, while protecting the health and safety of all children in care. Upon enrollment, each child will need the following:
A statement signed by a physician licensed to practice medicine shall certify that the physician has currently examined the child, and the child is physically able to participate in the school’s program.
A current shot record shall be kept on file at the school and must be always updated.
A signed statement from the parent giving the name and address of a health-care professional who has examined the child within the past year stating that the child is able to participate in the school program.
In accordance with the Minimum Standards #747.305 all childcare staff must notify all parents of children in the child- care center within 48 hours when any child in care has contracted a communicable disease. Any communicable disease must be reported to the Texas Department of Health as specified in 25 TAC 97, Subchapter A (relating to Control of Communicable Disease). Parents may access this information from the Texas Department of Health or TDPR Licensing Staff.
HEARING & VISION SCREENING
All children 4 years and older, are required by the state, to complete a vision and hearing screening with numeric results. Please obtain a copy of these screenings from your physician. Parents must submit the report from this screening to A NEW DAY CDC
within one week of the child’s start date, or the child will not be admitted.

Read Across America/ Dr. Seuss Week is celebrated from March 3 to March 7, 2025 — it begins on the birthday of the beloved author, Dr. Seuss. The entire month of March, in fact, is dedicated to reading. Since the first book that was ever written, many authors have made their mark and been remembered for their remarkable work. One such author is Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known by his pen name, Dr. Seuss. He has authored some of the most popular children’s books of all time, selling over 600 million copies.
To help celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday we will have Dr. Seuss week from Monday, March 3rd through Friday, March 7th, 2025
