Quality Rating and Improvement Systems 

We all agree that educational programs need to adhere to standards. Because state standards are so diverse across the United States, the early childhood field is moving towards developing state-specific rating systems. These systems, known as quality rating and improvement systems (QRIS) will monitor quality across all the early education programs. Currently, few states focus on the cultural competence within their QRIS framework. In this discussion, you will explore how you can support culturally competent policies and equitable practices in your own educational setting.

To prepare for this discussion:

In your initial post,

  • Identify if the state (Texas) you currently or plan to work in participates in the QRIS system.
  • Share any culturally competent policies that currently exist in your workplace or state.
  • Explain three key components of anti-bias/multicultural/culturally competent care and education that you think must be incorporated into all QRIS systems. Explain using research to support your thinking.
  • Describe how you can “speak up” for culturally diverse children and families that may not have a strong voice within your workplace/state.
