Kids 'R' Kids receives accreditation

Lakewood Ranch Kids ‘R’ Kids owners Gregg and Debra Kinney last week announced the preschool had recently earned accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement.

“Accreditation demonstrates to our students, parents and community that we are focused on raising student achievement, providing a safe and enriching learning environment and maintaining an efficient and effective operation staffed by highly qualified educators,” Gregg Kinney said.

To earn accreditation from the SACS CASI, schools must meet the organization’s high standards, be evaluated by a team of professionals from outside the school and implement a continual process of school improvement.
