NAEYC

NAEYC Accreditation

Hillside is a NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) Accredited+ center, with an overall score of over 95 percent and a Program Observation score of 100 percent.

Hillside is 1 of only 510 licensed centers in Texas that hold NAEYC Accreditation. Nationwide, less than 10% of programs achieve accreditation, making this a historic milestone for our school and community.

For over 2 years, our staff went through a rigorous process where we demonstrated and documented our commitment to meeting the high standards that NAEYC sets forth for curriculum, teaching, family engagement, leadership, health and safety, child assessments, and environment.
