NCA Accreditation

The North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI) is a non-governmental, voluntary organization that accredits more than 9,000 public and private schools in 19 states, the Navajo Nation, and the Department of Defense Dependents' Schools worldwide.

To earn accreditation, schools must meet NCA CASI's quality standards, be evaluated by an outside group of professionals, and implement a school improvement plan focused on increasing student performance. Accreditation is voluntary and must be renewed each year.
