What Are Your Cleaning & Sanitization Protocols?
The health and safety of our children, families, and staff are always a top priority at Gold Star Academy. Our team follows strict daily cleaning and sanitization procedures to maintain a safe, healthy, and welcoming environment throughout our schools.
Classrooms, bathrooms, common areas, toys, learning materials, and all high-touch surfaces are cleaned and sanitized multiple times throughout the day using childcare-approved cleaning products. Staff members closely follow state licensing regulations and health guidelines to help reduce the spread of germs and illness.
In addition to daily deep cleaning routines, we emphasize proper handwashing practices, maintain organized and hygienic classroom environments, and regularly sanitize shared spaces and equipment. Our goal is to provide families with peace of mind knowing their children are learning and growing in a clean, safe, and well-cared-for environment every day.
What Security & Safety Measures Are in Place?
At Gold Star Academy, creating a safe and secure environment for every child is one of our highest priorities. Our schools are designed with multiple layers of safety and security measures to help provide families with peace of mind each day.
All centers feature restricted-access entrances that require uniquely assigned codes to help ensure only authorized individuals may enter the building. Security cameras are utilized throughout the facility for internal monitoring, and our playgrounds are fully enclosed with secure fencing designed to provide safe outdoor play spaces for every age group.
In addition, all staff members are thoroughly screened and trained in emergency procedures, including CPR and First Aid certification. Our team regularly practices safety protocols and maintains close supervision of children at all times. We also follow strict check-in and check-out procedures to ensure every child is safely accounted for throughout the day.
From secure facilities to highly trained staff, we are committed to maintaining a safe, nurturing, and protected environment where children can learn, play, and thrive with confidence.
