Children playing in classroom

Accredited by Middle States

Head Start/Early Head Start of the Lehigh Valley, administered by Community Services for Children, recently received re-accreditation by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. We were one of 70 schools honored at the November 2010 meeting of the Middle States Commission on Elementary Schools.

Accreditation signifies that we engage in a rigorous process of developing self-knowledge. We hosted an evaluation team of independently appointed educators to review our program. And we have created an on-going strategic plan to move school improvement forward.

Accreditation also signifies that we have met the Middle States standards for a quality school. These standards reflect current research and best practices from throughout the education profession.

Accreditation is recognized around the world as an indication of trustworthiness, educational quality, and a commitment to on-going school improvement.
