With the start of the new year, we can always look forward to the promise of new beginnings. The fresh blanket of snow covering our communities here in Maryland is a great symbol of hope for the new year.
While the big news at my home has been the excitement that two snow days brings to school-aged kids, we at the Standards for Excellence Institute are also super excited to be sharing news about updates to our Standards for Excellence code and resources.
In the coming weeks and throughout 2025, we’ll be sharing more details about the program’s exciting relaunch, which will include our:
- Revised set of benchmarks in the Standards for Excellence code,
- New resources and tools in our new Standards for Excellence educational resource packets (in fact, we will soon have 49 packets, a big increase from our current collection of 27 packets),
- New website,
- New branding,
- New ways to show donors and the world that your organization lives by the highest standards,
- and more…
So, grab your coat and hat and join us as we sleigh into 2025 with great new Standards for Excellence programming and resources!
