On
Friday afternoon, WDS received a very important phone call from Erin
Schmidt of the National Accreditation Commission for Early Learning
Leaders. Her one word was enough--Congratulations! WDS
has been awarded accreditation through NAC, a national
organization that recognizes the achievements of outstanding early childhood
education programs.
This has been a 3-year
process. The effort and commitment of all the staff at WDS has paid off!
There is a 90 day action plan that will be completed, and WDS will join
the ranks of nationally accredited schools with this distinction!
You will now see the
NAC logo proudly displayed on all of the WDS communications, giving us a higher
ranking for both retaining and engaging qualified, licensed educators, and
attracting families to our school who understand the importance of quality
early childhood education.
Please take the time
to thank your child's teacher for a job well done! WUMC has treated both
students and staff to a lunchtime celebration today in recognition of this
amazing accomplishment. We take great pride in kicking off the new school
year with such a distinction, and looking forward to amazing year
together.
Thank you for all your
support!
