Since the opening of KCA in October 2023 we have been working very hard to meet the qualifications of a 5-STAR center. In just under a year, we were surveyed and are pleased to announce we have received a 5-STAR rating! We could have not done this without the hard work from our Educators and Administration!
During the month of September two FOCUS staff members surveyed our center. They were albe to examine the environments of each classroom, the social-emotional interactions between the children and the educators and also each child's porfolio. They also examined the centers administration portfolio. Administration has to demonstrate that they are supporting their educators, families and children in order to meet this rating. We are very proud of our educators, as they have worked very hard to meet all these requirements.
We thrive in being able to provide childcare at a high-quality level. Our educators are qualified and have received the education to help children reach their full potential by conducting observations, assessments and lesson plans that are tailored to meet the children's educational needs. Once we have a better understanding of the children under our care, we conduct family/teacher conferences to share the findings. This creates a collaboration between the family and educator that is extremely important.
Our educators prepare a lesson plan each week that is created based on the children's needs. This allows educators to help children meet their developmental milestones by creating activities that focus on the different areas in development. During activities, educators can observe the children to make sure they are meeting the goals created in their lesson plan. Play time is intentional and is also planned. Playing is a childs work!
We are now offering NM-PreK for children ages 3-5 years.
