Mount Madonna School (MMS) is pleased to share that the California Association of Independent Schools (CAIS) and the Accrediting Commission for Schools, the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (ACS WASC) have granted MMS a seven-year accreditation with a mid-cycle visit.
“This achievement reflects the school’s commitment to maintaining the highest standards of educational excellence, continuous improvement and dedication to our students’ success,” said Mount Madonna Head of School Ann Goewert. “This full accreditation is a testament to the hard work and collaboration of our students, parents, faculty, staff, administration, board of directors and trustees, in upholding Mount Madonna School’s mission and values.”
CAIS and ASC WASC establish a set of rigorous educational and operational standards for the pursuit of excellence in elementary and secondary education upon which private and independent day schools are measured. Therefore, CAIS and ASC WASC accreditation serves as recognition of the quality of Mount Madonna School’s education.
As part of a commitment to continuous improvement, Mount Madonna School’s trustees, board of directors and members of the administration are working on developing a Future Planning Document. The document incorporates institutional efforts to address the major recommendations from the accreditor’s visiting committee in order for MMS to be prepared for the mid-cycle visit.
The mid-cycle visit will serve as an opportunity to ensure that MMS remains on track with its goals for educational excellence and continuous improvement to meet CAIS and ASC WASC’s rigorous standards.
