Children in NAEYC-accredited early learning programs are nearly twice as likely to be rated “proficient” or “school ready!” That’s why the Little Rock School District’s Early Childhood Program is proud to pursue NAEYC accreditation — raising the bar for kindergarten readiness, educational equity, and lifelong success. ✨ Want your child to start strong? Find more information and enroll today at: https://www.lrsd.org/page/early-childhood.
