CFNC Earns High Marks in New Star Rating System


The Child & Family Network Centers (CFNC) is among the first child care centers and preschool programs in the Commonwealth to receive a star rating as part of the Virginia Star Quality Initiative, a quality rating and improvement system for early learning programs. By participating in the initiative, early learning programs are awarded one of five star levels of increasing quality. CFNC received stellar marks: three four-star ratings and two three-star ratings for the five Alexandria sites that participated in 2010. This rating system will give families an easy-to-use tool when researching options for their children's earliest learning experiences.

"CFNC was excited to participate and we are thrilled by our star-rating," said Sharon Shackelford, Director of Education at CFNC. "Our rating is further evidence of the high quality of our preschool and we are proud that for more than 26 years we have been able to offer our program at no cost to families in need."

For further details on this honor, please read the full press release .

Thank you for your support which helps us maintain our high-quality, star rated programs!
