Congratulations to Spaulding School’s preschool program for earning the highest rating for preschool quality by the State of Illinois! The Gold Circle of Quality is awarded to programs that meet or exceed standards for instructional excellence, family services, staff qualifications, professional development, and program administration.
Spaulding Principal Sara Rosheger announced the recognition during a staff meeting in early December.
The rating is awarded by ExceleRate Illinois which is the state’s quality recognition and improvement system for early learning and development programs. ExceleRate unifies all the state’s early learning programs under a common set of standards across multiple settings to provide families with important information about quality early learning programs in their community.
The recognition notification from ExceleRate stated, “Achieving this designation demonstrates your school’s commitment to providing quality early childhood education to children in your district.”
