East Pittsburgh KinderCare Receives National Accredidation

The East Pittsburgh KinderCare Learning Center, a preschool and child care center in Penn Hills, has recently been awarded the National Early Childhood Program Accreditation (NECPA).

The center provides educational programs for the Plum Borough, Penn Hills, and surrounding area.

This nationally recognized accreditation follows a rigorous process of self-study, surveys of parents and staff, verification by early childhood education/child care professionals, and a final review by the NECPA Board of Commissioners.

The accreditation is valid for three years, after which the program must complete the process again in order to maintain its accredited status. During the accreditation process all areas of the school’s program are scrutinized including administration, staff development and the working environment, the developmental program, outdoor and indoor environments, health and safety, and parent and community relations.
