Dear Parents:
We have something to shout about! Recently, the Mary Hart Nursery School was named a Step Up To Quality Center by the State of Ohio. Only the top childcare centers in Ohio receive this prestigious award, so you should be proud that your child is enrolled in one of Ohio's best!
We received this award because of our overall commitment to quality and our excellent early childcare and education program. We offer a wonderful environment for children to grow and develop, and it is an honor to receive state recognition for our efforts. Among the special quality features that helped us win this award are the following:
More teachers per child - this allows a teacher to spend more time with your child.
More qualified teachers - more training in early childhood development.
A commitment to early learning and Ohio's Early Learning Content Standards.
An outstanding work environment - paid staff benefits means the staff is treated professionally, which goes a long way in retaining good teachers for your child.
As a parent, this award is yours as well. Your ideas and support have inspired us to bring a world of discovery and excitement to your child each and every day. Our goal is to build your child's self-confidence, develop their social and emotional skills and instill a love for learning.
We are extremely pleased to have won this award and hope you are too.
Sincerely,
Kathy Phillips, Director
