This is daycare report card. A look in to daycare facilities and how they rate in Tennessee’s three star rating system. One, two and three stars, shows that a center goes above and beyond the minimum operation requirements. Zero stars is not a bad rating, it just indicates that a facility meets the minimum requirements.
