ACSI/SACS Accreditation


Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI)

ACSI accreditation programs are for preschool, elementary, and secondary schools. Recognized at the national level as well as by many regional and state accrediting agencies, these programs provide a comprehensive evaluation model for Christian schools. Programs and services are designed to assist Christian schools at every grade level including early education and higher education. ASCI has sixteen regional offices in North America and around the globe. Current membership includes 5,000 member schools from 115 countries with an enrollment of 1,030,000 students. The ACSI accreditation program was one of the first programs to be recognized officially by the National Council for Private School Accreditation (NCPSA).

Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS)

SACS accredits more than 12,000 public and private educational institutions from pre-kindergarten through university level in eleven states of the southeastern United States and in Latin America. Member institutions regularly perform comprehensive self-evaluations to assist them in planning for improvement and to assure the public of their overall quality. SACS is one of only six such regional accrediting organizations in the United States recognized by the United States Department of Education.
