The Keystone STARS Performance Standards for Centers for the period of July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009. This version of the Standards is dated June 6, 2008. Since the inception of the Keystone STARS program in 2002, the Performance Standards have been the bedrock of the program. The standards are guided by the principle that quality early learning programs are the foundation for children's success, and investment in the early care and education of Pennsylvania's children is an investment in the future. Therefore, the Keystone STARS Performance Standards reflect research-based practices to improve outcomes for children. The standards are organized into four STAR levels that build upon each other in order to support continuous quality improvement. When a program meets the Performance Standards for a STAR level, they receive the mark of quality, a STAR designation. A Keystone STARS designation informs parents that their children are in a safe, respectful environment in which they are learning new things every day to support their current and future successes in school and in life.

Estandartes de Desempeño para Centros para el Año Fiscal 2008-2009: El programa Keystone STARS fue iniciado en 2002 como un enfoque multifacético para mejorar los programas que sirven a niños pequeños en Pennsylvania. Estandartes de Desempeño basados en investigación forman la base de este programa de mejora de calidad. Los estandartes están basados en el principio de que el aprendizaje temprano de calidad es una fundación para el éxito de los niños y la inversión en el cuidado y la educación temprana de los niños de Pennsylvania es una inversión en el futuro. Por lo tanto, los Estandartes de Desempeño de Keystone STARS reflejan indicadores basados en investigación para mejorar resultados para los niños. Los estandartes están organizados en cuatro niveles STAR que se construyen y desarrollan sobre sí mismos para apoyar la mejora continua de calidad. Cuando un programa cumple con los Estandartes de Desempeño para un nivel STAR, el mismo recibe una marca de calidad, una designación STAR. Una designación de Keystone STARS informa a los padres que el director y el personal están comprometidos a aumentar la calidad para los niños y las familias en su programa.

The Keystone STARS Performance Standards for Group Homes are effective July 1, 2009. Since the inception of the Keystone STARS program in 2002, the Performance Standards have been the bedrock of the program. The standards are guided by the principle that quality early learning programs are the foundation for children's success, and investment in the early care and education of Pennsylvania's children is an investment in the future. Therefore, the Keystone STARS Performance Standards reflect research-based practices to improve outcomes for children. The standards are organized into four STAR levels that build upon each other in order to support continuous quality improvement. When a program meets the Performance Standards for a STAR level, they receive the mark of quality, a STAR designation. A Keystone STARS designation informs parents that their children are in a safe, respectful environment in which they are learning new things every day to support their current and future successes in school and in life.
