So very thankful!

It was indeed a very short week here at AOCS! Throughout the month of November we’ve been showing our families and friends how thankful we are for them. Whether it was with a Turkey Snack, Thankful Lunch for parents, a fun guessing game and even making memories in class with friends. We hope everyone had a wonderful thanksgiving with families and friends!

Fall Fun!

Our friends enjoyed the wonderful fall weather this week. They found the leaves very interesting and fun. Our teachers took the opportunity to talk about seasons, and why the leaves change colors.

"We're Creating Childhood"

The Academy Child Development Centers and Preschools are privately owned and operated by our parent company, Never Grow Up, Inc. Based out of Louisville, KY, family owned Never Grow Up, Inc. operated nearly 30 child development centers in Tennessee, Kentucky, and Indiana.

We understand that "we're creating childhood" every day for the children in our care, and we hold that privilege with the highest regard.

Getting a Jump on Childhood Obesity

Healthy habits are instilled at a young age, with most habits being formed during adolescence. We feel it important to instill good habits at an early age, addressing behavioral factors that contribute to overweight and obesity from the beginning.

The Gold Sneaker initiative was developed to enhance policy related to physical activity and nutrition within licensed child care facilities across Tennessee. Policies we've adopted include minimum requirements on physical activity, sedentary activities, breastfeeding, meal time, behaviors, portion sizes, and a tobacco-free facility.

Together, we can create healthy habits for life.
