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.
On this week’s daycare report card we take a look at three local child care facility that scored three out of three stars from the state of Tennessee’s three star rating program.
