Nurturing to Success

Accreditation

Here at Carlton Academy Day School, highest quality education is our top priority, setting high standards and expectations for what preschool education should be. These are some of our awards and affiliations, which display the level of commitment to which we hold ourselves as an organization.
A Trusted, Nurturing Preschool for Colorado Springs Families
Choosing a preschool is about trust. At Carlton Academy, we create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel excited to learn—and families feel confident in their choice. Our Colorado Springs campus is proudly accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), the gold standard in early childhood education. NAEYC accreditation means our classrooms, teachers, curriculum, and policies meet the highest national benchmarks. It’s one of the strongest assurances families can have when selecting care for their child.

 

What NAEYC Accreditation Means for Your Child

NAEYC-accredited programs put children’s well-being at the center of every decision. At Carlton Academy, your child benefits from:

  • Developmentally appropriate learning that supports social, emotional, physical, and academic growth
  • Warm, responsive teachers who build strong relationships
  • Engaging classrooms that inspire curiosity and creativity
  • Consistent routines that help children feel secure and confident

These early experiences support school readiness and a lifelong love of learning.
