Last year two chil dren benefited from the scholar ship, which had not yet been named. Northwest Child Development Council Inc. is committed to increasing the qual ity of their child care service delivery. Child care professionals indicate that quality is determined by at least three factors: the edu cation level of the director, the education level of the teachers. and staff-child ratios. Northwest Child Development supports and encourages their teachers to seek higher educational levels. Through the Technical Assistance Center, a program funded by Forsyth Early Childhood Partnership (the local Smart Start Initiative), and the State's T.E.A.C.H program, teachers will have opportunities to advance their educational levels. Northwest operates 12 cen^ ters in Forsyth, Stokes, Davie and Yadkin counties. All centers in Forsyth County are AA centers, which have lower child-staff ratios.
