What it reported doing in 2025

During 2025, The Jaybird Learning Academy continued expanding its educational and childcare programs within the Killeen community. The organization increased enrollment and enhanced its ability to serve local families by providing childcare, early childhood education, and developmental learning opportunities for children.

In addition, the organization expanded its workforce by hiring and supporting 3 to 4 employees who assist in delivering educational and childcare services. Jaybird Learning Academy also expanded enrichment opportunities for participating children through educational field trips and community outings, including visits to local parks, movie theaters, and other age-appropriate learning experiences designed to promote social development, community engagement, and experiential learning. The organization continued building relationships with local churches, community partners, and families while strengthening its presence within the community. Through these efforts, Jaybird Learning Academy further advanced its mission of providing safe, educational, and development-focused programs that support children and working families throughout the Killeen area.
