Kindergarten Readiness Programs: Watch Your Child Thrive!
Our “Kindergarten Club” prepares pre-kindergarten students with essential skills to stand-out in problem-solving, mathematics, reading/writing, social studies, and science.
In fact, we recently administered a Kindergarten Readiness test to 3,805 children across 155 of our Cadence Education Family of Schools. The results were phenomenal: we identified a total of 89.6 percent of these children with “Kindergarten Readiness” and 63.4 percent with “Advanced Readiness” for those full-time students that had participated for more than a year in our program.

Our Team

Brandi Underwood
School Director
I began my teaching career in 2009 and joined Cadence in Georgia’s Pre-K program in August 2013. In 2016, I was promoted to Assistant Director, and in 2023, I assumed the role of Director. I enjoy early childhood education because it allows me to make a meaningful impact during the most critical stage of a child’s development. It’s incredibly rewarding to help lay the foundation for lifelong learning and watch children grow emotionally, socially, and intellectually. In my free time, I enjoy spending quality time with my husband and our two children, Cash and Cohen. We love being outdoors and attending events at the ball fields.

Skylar Arrington
Assistant Director
I began working in early childhood education in 2013, when I was 15 years old, and have been committed to the field ever since. I really love being part of early childhood education because you’re helping shape who these kids during such an important time in their lives. In a leadership role like assistant director, I enjoy supporting both the kids and the teachers—making sure the environment is positive, organized, and running smoothly. I like building relationships with families, jumping in to help where needed, and finding ways to make the day better for everyone. It’s a job that keeps me on my toes, but it’s incredibly rewarding to know I’m helping create a place where kids feel safe, happy, and excited to learn. In my free time, I really enjoy spending time at church, especially helping out with the children’s ministry. It’s something I’m passionate about—watching the kids grow and being part of that is really meaningful to me. I also love spending time with my family and friends, just enjoying good company. I’m someone who likes to stay busy, so I enjoy working on different projects that keep my mind active and give me a sense of accomplishment.
