It's true, in July 2011 we completed an extensive validation process by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, and we have received high commendations. The new criteria, as of 2007, reflect the latest research and best practices in early childhood education and development. In an ongoing self-study process, we implemented best practices, measured and improved our programs. NAEYC has visited us and validated that we meet all the new standards for best practices. Our new accreditation is valid until September 2016.
