We are proud that FLLC maintains an All STARS Level 3 out of 5. STAR-rated centers show their commitment to quality by participating in Kentucky All STARS. Kentucky All STARS domains and standards are based on quality indicators: Family and Community Engagement, Classroom and Instructional Quality, Staff Qualifications and Professional Development and Administrative and Leadership Practices.
Any provider participating at a Level 3 or higher has completed an evaluation of the program using a nationally standardized tool, the Environmental Rating Scale.
