Accreditation
EYC is locally and nationally accredited. To stimulate quality improvement, to improve accountability and transparency, and to improve the capacity of the department to provide high quality programs and services.
EYC is Nationally accredited through COGNIA
(formerly AdvancED).
EYC Academy is an approved non-public school (SCHOOL CODE 096-848) and private agency (AGENCY CODE 999-006) with the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, authorized to service students K-adult.
Approved Private Agencies with the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) are described in the Missouri State Plan for Special Education, Regulation XIV. DESE approval to function as an approved private agency allows IEP teams in local school districts to consider placing a student in our program when the student’s educational needs can no longer be met in a less restrictive educational placement at the local school district.
