Early Childhood Education Franchise Opens in Plano, Brings Well-Rounded Program to the Community

PLANO, Texas, Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebree School, a leader in early childhood education that provides infant and toddler care, preschool, before and aftercare, and summer camp programs, will open its newest school in Plano in early- September. Located at 4033 East Plano Pkwy., the new school will provide a brand new school building with a state-of-the-art playground with a customized program that addresses the physical, social, emotional, and academic needs of children while adhering to Texas's early education standards.

Celebree School of Plano at Los Rios is owned and operated by local entrepreneurs and educators Deepti Biyani and Prajakta Desai. Originally from India and longtime friends with strong corporate backgrounds, Biyani and Desai are embarking on a three-school venture with Celebree School, driven by their shared passion for early childhood education.

Biyani, who holds a master's in management information systems from the University of Texas at Arlington, is a Senior Manager of FP&A managing financials exceeding $400 million. As mothers to best friends and 12-year-old daughters, they were inspired to create a high-quality learning environment where children receive the best early education and care. Partnering with Celebree School aligns with their vision of building a strong, community-focused business that nurtures both children and educators while following a proven, values-driven system.

"We are thrilled to bring Celebree School to our community and create a nurturing, high-quality learning environment where children can thrive," said Desai.
