The Cedarsong Way® Accreditation benefits your school in several ways, including:

- Additional visibility for your school through links on the cedarsongway.org website and through various social media accounts – we routinely feature Cedarsong accredited schools in our social media.
- Affirmation that your school meets a standard of excellence recognized within the early childhood education community and by educators worldwide which makes it a powerful marketing asset.
- Providing assurance to families that their child’s school is a quality one and that it is accountable to an overseeing organization.
- Accreditation comes with the opportunity for your families to apply for additional scholarship funds from The Cedarsong Way.
- Accredited school directors will be considered for the various speaking engagements and opportunities that are offered to The Cedarsong Way, increasing your personal visibility, the visibility of your school, and of the Cedarsong Way.
