The Eagle Adventist Christian Center (EACC) recently received a $15,000 grant through the QRIS (Quality Rating Improvement System) which is a new system to raise the standard of child care in Idaho. The grant has been used for improvement of the outdoor learning environment and in the classroom. EACC is the only National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) accredited preschool in Eagle and is one of only a few in the State of Idaho.
