I am proud to be part of the Kentucky All STARS program, Kentucky's expanded five-star quality rating and improvement system serving all early-care and education programs. The unified system is based on Kentucky's Early Childhood Standards and research-based indicators of quality. Kentucky All STARS recognizes programs that have made a commitment to continuous quality improvement.
