Congratulations to all city of Aurora Preschools for your continued commitment to quality from Colorado Shines Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS).
Colorado Shines is the state's quality rating and improvement system for early learning programs.
Each of our five schools is a Level 5-rated program, the highest rating for child care programs, showing our commitment to supporting children's health and safety, ensuring our staff are well-trained and effective, providing a supportive learning environment and helping families be active in their children's learning.
Using proven methods, it assesses overall school quality based on 5 areas:
- Workforce Qualifications and Professional Development
- Family Partnerships
- Leadership, Management and Administration
- Learning Environment
- Child Health Promotion
Research consistently shows that children who attend quality early care and learning programs are more likely to do well in school and less likely to drop out or need remedial education. Quality early education helps children start strong and the benefits last forever.
