Open Door School is celebrating having achieved re-accreditation through NAEYC for another five years! NAEYC stands for the National Association for the Education of Young Children. NAEYC sets standards for high-quality early childhood education programs. It is a voluntary program that only a few schools succeed at receiving accreditation through. In fact, only 13 other preschools and child development centers in Charlotte are NAEYC accredited. The standards that must be proven are extensive, ranging from health policies and sanitation to the materials in the classrooms, the way staff speak to children, parent/teacher communication, and much more. ODS is truly proud to be a NAEYC school.

Reminder: Our Full Day program will be closed on May 28 for Memorial Day. The last day for Half-Day classes is May 25.

We have Open Door T-Shirts on sale in the office. Instead of taking orders this Spring, we are letting people “shop off the rack.” Please note that the shirts on the rack in the office are just examples of the colors and sizes; however we have a wide variety of sizes in stock. All sales benefit the Financial Aid Fund.

ODS Camp registration is closed.

Registration for our 2012-13 school year has closed and class placements have been made. We still have a few spots in some of our Half Day classes. We also maintain Waitlists for the classes which are full. A tour is required for new families prior to registration; if you would like to schedule one, please contact us.
