ExceleRate Illinois recognizes early learning providers who make quality a priority!

ExceleRate Illinois is a statewide quality recognition and improvement system designed to make continuous quality improvement an everyday priority among early learning providers. The program establishes standards for helping infants, toddlers and preschool age children develop intellectually, physically, socially and emotionally. It provides a framework for early learning professionals to identify opportunities for improvement, increase their skills and take steps to make positive changes.

The Silver Circle of Quality recognizes that the program has met quality goals. Silver Circle programs meet or go beyond quality standards in three areas: learning environment and teaching quality; administrative standards; and training & education. These programs are actively engaged in continuous quality improvement. Mother Goose Children’s Academy is consistently climbing the ladder of Quality, and currently we hold the ExceleRate Illinois Silver Circle of Quality. This indicates that our safe and supported learning spaces provide quality, and that we meet or exceed specific quality benchmarks on learning environment and instructional quality, along with selected program and administrative standards, as well as staff qualifications and professional development.
