Accreditation Visit
January 22-25, 2023
We ask our school family to keep our staff, students, and our school in prayer as we go through the Accreditation process. The visiting team will be here on Sunday, January 22nd and begin their work on Monday, January 23rd. They will complete their visit on January 25th. The team's main purpose is to ensure students in Texas Catholic Schools reach academic excellence and experience quality faith formation.Texas Catholic Conference of Bishops Education Department (TCCB ED) provides an accreditation program, which is recognized by the state’s Texas Education Agency (TEA).
The accreditation program focuses on school improvements and accountability. It is intended to strengthen Catholic school's mission and identity, and to engage Catholic schools in the ongoing improvement of student academic performance.
Each Catholic school is accredited every seven years and provides annual reports for continued school accreditation.
The team will explore all areas of our campus, including interviews with teachers, students, and parents. We will be discussing this with our students over the next two weeks. If you see unfamiliar faces please be aware they are most probably members of the visiting team.
Our school has many outstanding strengths of which we are justifiably proud. There is always room for improvement as we move forward and adapt to our changing world. The Accreditation process and evaluation is intended to aid us in this endeavor. Again, we ask for your prayers.
Shout Out
