Curriculum
© Our teachers meet, and most often exceed, the DCFS teacher qualification requirements.
© Rainbow requires that all staff become certified in First Aid and CPR. The Department of Children & Family Services requires that only one person on staff be certified in the above.
© Rainbow pays salaries that are the highest in the industry. This means that
© Rainbow has two Directors on staff to help evaluate children with possible special needs and to help the parents seek the appropriate special services for their child.
© Our curriculum is not sent to us by a corporate office. Our curriculum is developed by a highly qualified and experienced teaching staff and our Directors and Executive Director.

o Themes for the coming month
