CSI (Continuous School Improvement) Clues… for Parents

What does it mean to be “accredited”?

Like many schools in the States, all DoDDS schools must undergo a process of school improvement. Our schools are then evaluated by an outside group of professionals, and become accredited by the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI).

What does NCA CASI (North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement) do?

NCA CASI accreditation assures parents and the public that schools:

• focus on raising student achievement
• provide a safe and enriching learning environment
• adhere to high quality standards
• maintain an efficient and effective operation
• effectively use public funds
