Christian Chapel Academy maintains accreditation through four accrediting bodies, the Association of Christian Teachers and Schools, AdvancED, the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, and the National Association of Private Schools.
The Association of Christian Teachers and Schools (ACTS) is a non-profit organization that strives to set new standards of Christ-centered academic excellence while assisting Christian schools to realize the highest level of educational credibility. ACTS is passionately committed to a Biblical Worldview that is consistent with God’s Word, building partnerships with Christian schools, and serving current and prospective members with resources, consulting, advice, and mentoring.
AdvancED is the world’s largest regional accrediting body, serving more than 30,000 public and private schools and districts across the United States and in more than 70 countries. AdvancED brings together more than 100 years of experience and the expertise of three US-Based accreditation agencies- the North Central Association Commision of Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI), Northwest Accreditation Commission (NWAC), and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement (SACS CASI).
The North Central Association of colleges and Schools is made up of two separate independent corporations; the commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI), which accredits elementary, middle, and secondary schools, and adult-vocational, college prep and other post-secondary non-degree granting institutions, and the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), which is responsible for accrediting degree-granting colleges, universities and vocational schools.
The National Association of Private Schools is dedicated to recognizing and improving the character and educational quality of private Christian schools. NAPS is a non-profit educational corporation, which provides educational assistance and accreditation for church schools, private Christian schools, and Christian home school academies, Pre-K through 12th grade, with credible traditional education programs.
