Colorado College Children’s Center Mission Statement
In partnership with the families, faculty, staff and students of Colorado College, the Colorado College Children’s Center provides a nationally accredited, early care and education center that supports excellence in learning that is an integral part of the campus community. As innovation professionals, we provide a diverse educational opportunity for our community of learners. By doing this successfully we make a difference in the lives of children and families in the community where we live and work.
Our Program’s Philosophy
The Colorado College Children’s Center practices a philosophy of serving each child’s unique individual social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth in a developmentally appropriate program. As we focus on each child we do our utmost to incorporate a respect for the mind, value all persons, practice honesty and integrity, remember traditions, nurture a sense of place, introduce social responsibility, and strive for excellence. We join with the greater Colorado College community by promoting these core values.
NAEYC Accreditation
The Colorado College Children’s Center (CCCC) is accredited by the National Academy of Early Childhood Programs, a division of the National Association for the Education of Young Children, (NAEYC), the nation’s largest organization of early childhood educators. Early childhood programs accredited by the NAEYC have voluntarily undergone a comprehensive process of internal self-study, and external professional reviews to verify compliance with the Academy’s Criteria for High Quality Early Childhood Programs, and have been found to be in substantial compliance with the criteria. A copy of the Criteria may be obtained from the Children’s Center office.
