Texas Rising Star

Texas Rising Star 2-star of a possible 4

What inspectors checked

Texas HHSC records how many individual standards it evaluated in each area of the rules, and how many it found violated. Across 16 areas it checked 4,127 standards at YMCA @ Herndon Royse City between September 1, 2022 and January 30, 2026 and recorded 7 violations. Those correspond to the citations listed above that were recorded from 2021 onward; anything older than that is in the citation list but not in these counts.

The 16 areas, one by one

Area of the rules	Visits	Standards checked	Violated
Scope, administration, and communication	4	418	0
Record keeping	4	399	0
Personnel	4	641	0
Ratios and group sizes	4	168	0
Activities	4	242	0
Discipline	4	110	0
Naptime	4	40	0
Field trips	4	44	0
Nutrition and food service	4	170	0
Health practices	4	370	0
Safety practices	4	284	0
Physical facilities	4	282	0
Active play	4	456	1
Pools	4	102	0
Fire safety	4	256	1
Transportation	4	138	0

The table adds up to 4,120 of those standards. The remaining 7, including 5 of the violations, were recorded under the state's own catch-all heading, “Individual Standards Evaluated”, which names no area. They are reported here rather than folded into an area above, because the state did not say which area they belong to and we are not going to decide for it.

A high number of standards checked is not a compliment and a low one is not a criticism: how many apply depends on a program's size, its ages served and what the inspector was there to look at. We publish the two counts the state published and do not turn them into a score. This data begins in 2021, which is later than the inspection history above it.

What YMCA @ Herndon Royse City says about itself

YMCA Afterschool Programs provide a safe, fun, and enriching environment where kids can learn, play, and grow through homework support, games, and activities.

Quoted from ymcadallas.org/afterschool, read on October 25, 2026. These are the program's own words, not ours, and we neither check nor endorse them.

Send your question

We email you a copy, and tell you honestly whether it reached them. Texas HHSC has no email address on file for about two programs in five, and for those the phone number above is the faster route.

Tell me about new inspections

Your email

Email me when this program is inspected

One short message each time Texas HHSC records an inspection here, saying that it happened and linking to the record. We do not tell you what the inspector found: a finding without whether it was corrected is misleading, and that pair belongs on the page rather than split across an email.

We ask for nothing but the address, and we send a confirmation first. Your list is never shown to this program, never sold, and every message has a link to stop. An inspection is routine: programs are visited on a schedule and after a complaint, and a visit is not a finding.

Do you have a child enrolled here?

If YMCA @ Herndon Royse City confirms you are enrolled, you can tell us what you actually pay. We publish price ranges by city and age so other families know what to expect, and the only reliable source for that is people paying it.

There are no reviews on this site and we are not adding them. We publish the state's inspection record and facts families confirm, not opinions. Your address is never shown publicly; it goes to the program so they can confirm you, and nowhere else.

About this record

Every figure on this page comes from the Texas HHSC Child Care Regulation open data published at data.texas.gov, reproduced as the state recorded it. We do not grade, score or rank programs. A citation is a finding by a state inspector on a given day; it is not a judgment about a program today, and the correction status beside each one is part of the record. This page reflects data retrieved on November 7, 2026. Full methodology.
