Tutor Time of Jacksonville Receives APPLE Accreditation

February 22, 2004–Tutor Time Child Care/Learning Center of Jacksonville located at 4783 Windsor Common Court recently received APPLE (Accredited Professional Preschool Learning Environment) accreditation by the Florida Association of Child Care Management (FACCM). This voluntary accreditation demonstrates Tutor Time's commitment to the children and families it serves.

APPLE accreditation is the result of an intensive process of documentation, self-examination and validation by a trained evaluation professional. This on-site evaluation includes the center's policies and procedures, the physical facility, employee longevity and training, teacher-child interaction, child care center management, parent and community involvement and advocacy for children. Each component must be present and collectively create a quality early childhood environment as defined by APPLE's high standards. Accreditation is awarded only if the center demonstrates substantial compliance with the criteria.

APPLE accreditation validates that Tutor Time of Jacksonville is a safe, nurturing environment and that its curriculum, delivered by caring, knowledgeable teachers, prepares children for academic success. Tutor Time is proud of its achievement in receiving this accreditation and would like to salute the teachers and caregivers who make the center a safe and secure learning environment. Their hard work and attention to each child's individual needs is unparalleled.
