Accreditation Team Visits CCS
Updated November 30, 2011
From the inception of Clarksville Christian School, the desire has been for CCS to strive for excellence. CCS became a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) in the summer of 2007 and has worked toward the goal of becoming accredited over the last four years. ACSI now has a partnership with AdvancED (formerly Southern Association of Colleges and Schools).
A program spends three years fully developing every aspect of school operation. A minimum of one year is required for a rigorous self-study process. Following the self-study, a team of educators from ACSI visits the school and issues a recommendation to the commission. The ACSI accreditation team visited CCS the week before Thanksgiving, and with the Lord’s blessing, our accreditation status should be received by June, 2012. If the visiting accreditation team is able to finalize and submit their report before the commission meets in December, there is a possibility CCS will know by January 2012. In the meantime, CCS has submitted an application to AdvancED for dual accreditation. CCS will be accredited by ACSI and AdvancED soon.
Children, students, and families are looking for high-quality education. A school’s involvement in the accreditation process raises the school's commitment to quality through this intentional investment. Please continue to keep CCS and this accreditation process in your prayers.
