This week, Covenant High School was accredited by the Association for Christian Schools International (ACSI). This is the fourth successful accreditation in school history.

A key part of ACSI’s mission is to strengthen schools. One of the ways they do this is through the process of accreditation. Accreditation with ACSI is a vigorous, holistic process of organizational appraisal and improvement that engages all of a school’s constituents. Every step of the accreditation process is designed to be useful for driving the improvement of a private school.

At the end of this process, ACSI provides commendations on a school’s strengths. At Covenant High School, ACSI commended us on the following:

#1 The school board demonstrated a deep commitment to Christian education and their due diligence.

#2 The school board orchestrated a smooth transition in leadership as they brought a new principal to the school.

#3 The curriculum has a well-documented biblical basis.

#4 School personnel consistently demonstrate their mission and philosophy to the school.

#5 The school demonstrates excellence in creating a culture of Christ-like respect.

We are excited and humbled by these affirmations from a highly regarded association. It is an honor to have the opportunity to continue our work in deepening students’ relationships with Jesus Christ and preparing them for fruitful service to God and man.
