Accreditation For School Improvement
Why seek ACCS Accreditation?
The ACCS offers the only accreditation specifically for classical Christian schools. ACCS accreditation is a school-improvement program that provides an evaluation of a school and its practices to encourage stability, quality, and a measure of excellence.
Accredited members meet our foundational standards for a classical Christian school. Schools often make improvements during the initial stage as they prepare documentation to demonstrate compliance. After ACCS staff validate the self-study documentation, a visit committee is identified with members from other ACCS-accredited schools. The on-site visit provides school administrators with an opportunity to build relationships with other administrators facing similar issues. Unlike other accrediting agencies, we verify the classical nature of the school’s teaching so that it reaches a foundational set of requirements.
ACCS Accreditation Process
When schools are accepted as accreditation candidates by ACCS, they gain a partner who is committed to helping them improve through the accreditation process.
