Meet the Leadership Team at KLA Schools of River Oaks

Brandi Smith

Head of School

Welcome to KLA Schools of River Oaks!

Nearly two decades of leadership experience in the Houston market has brought me the opportunity of a lifetime in launching KLA-Schools of River Oaks in the heart of the city that made me. I whole-heartedly believe that the Reggio philosophy, which is the foundation of the many KLA Schools across the nation that came before us, in addition to the high quality of care that KLA families have come to know, is what has been missing in our wonderfully diversified city. This fact coupled with my unwavering passion for children and the families who love them, made the decision to accept the role as Head of School a no-brainer. I look forward to meeting all our families and welcoming them to the KLA way!
