This notification is intended to be used to remind the currently certified providers of the upcoming annual monitoring visit. This notification will be distributed quarterly to a selected group.
Dear Texas Rising Star Certified Early Learning Program,
We are excited to be able to continue to support you with your program’s quality improvement journey through Texas Rising Star as the new Workforce Solutions – Early Education Quality Services provider for the 13 county Gulf Coast region.
This notification is to remind you that your program might be up for a Texas Rising Star annual monitoring visit.
The unannounced annual monitoring visit is a required observation visit conducted each year to ensure your program continues the quality of care at which it is certified and to ascertain if there are areas in which the aid of a mentor is needed to maintain or improve quality.
Typically, the annual monitoring visit will take place prior to the yearly certification date, but not earlier than three months from that date (e.g., effective date of certification is 6/01/2023; the annual monitoring visit will take place during the month of March, April or May of 2024, for the first year and March, April or May of 2025, for the second year; the third year is a recertification year).
