Welcome to Discovery Point #3
HOWELL FERRY
Stop by anytime to visit our center, or call ahead to schedule a tour. Our door is always open to you!
Overview:
Our goal is to provide the highest level of care for our children. Positive, frequent, warm interactions among teachers and children combined with planned learning activities are what you will find at our center.
We have been NAEYC accredited since 2004, which validates the level of quality that we provide for young children. NAEYC administers the largest and most widely recognized accreditation system of early childhood schools in the country. There are only 5 centers in Duluth that have received this award. In addition, we have also been awarded "Center of Recognition" certificate by Bright From the Start. We are one of four centers featured on the governor's video for high quality care.
At Discovery Point #3 our motto is "Think like a parent." We approach situations by asking ourselves the question, "What would I want for my own children?" We believe that by thinking like a parent, we will always remain focused on your children's best interest.
