Noah's Ark Academy Accredited By NAEYC
Joins National Movement to Improve early Childhood Education.
Highland Park, August 30, 2005 Noah's Ark Academy has earned
accreditation from the National Association for the Education of young
children - the nation's leading organization of early childhood
professionals.
"We're proud to be accredited by NAEYC, and recognized for our
commitment to reaching the highest professional standards," said Karen
Marino, Executive Director of Noah's Ark Academy. "NAEYC
Accreditation lets families in our community know that children in our
program are getting the best care and early learning experiences. The
mission on Noah's Ark child care learning center is to provide a safe,
nurturing learning environment for our communities children. Through
an active, child-initiated curriculum we will promote our children's social,
cognitive, emotional, and physical development with daily hands on
experiences."
In the 20 years since NAEYC Accreditation was established, it has
become a widely recognized sign of high quality in early childhood
education programs. More than 10,000 programs - serving over 850,000
young children - are currently accredited by NAEYC.
" In recent years, we've seen a growing number of child care and
preschool programs earning NAEYC Accreditation, " said Mark
Ginsberg, Ph.D., Executive Director of NAEYC. "By earning
accreditation, Noah's Ark has become a leader in a national effort to
raise the quality of early childhood education, and to help give all
children a better start."
Responding to the growth of the system, in 1999 the NAEYC Governing
Board appointed a National Commission on Accreditation Reinvention
to conduct a comprehensive review of NAEYC 's Accreditation system.
Building on their work, NAEYC is making many changes to increase th
reliability and accountability of the accreditation system and promote
higher program quality. In April 2005, the NAEYC Governing Board
approved new NAEYC Early Childhood Program Standards and
Accreditation Performance Criteria, which will be the foundation of the
reinvented accreditation system. The new system will be fully
operational in 2006.
NAEYC created its accreditation program in 1985 to set professional
standards for early childhood education, and to help families identify
high-quality child care and early education programs. To earn NAEYC
accreditation, a program conducts a self study to determine how well it
meets the standards. After necessary improvements are made, the
program is observed by independent, professional validators, and then
reviewed by a national panel. Programs are accredited by NAEYC for a
five-year period.
