We are very excited to announce that River View Christian Academy has earned its second accreditation. This accreditation is from the Northwest Accreditation Commission (NWAC), an accreditation division of AdvancED. This action was taken at the AdvancED Accreditation Commission meeting on June 19, 2019.
NWAC provides nationally-recognized accreditation, the purpose of which is continuous school improvement focused on increasing student performance. To earn accreditation, schools must meet NWAC’s high standards, be evaluated by a team of professionals from outside the school and implement a continuous process of school improvement.
Accreditation demonstrates to RVCA students, parents and community that RVCA is focused on raising student achievement, providing a safe and enriching learning environment, and maintaining an efficient and effective operation staffed by highly qualified educators.
NWAC accreditation is recognized across state lines, which not only eases the transfer process as students move from accredited school to accredited school but also assures parents that the school is meeting nationally accepted standards for quality and successful professional practice.
Dr. Mark Elgart, President/CEO of AdvancED, the parent organization of NWAC, stated, “NWAC Accreditation is a rigorous process that focuses the entire school on the primary goal of creating lifelong learners. River View Christian Academy is to be commended for engaging in this process and demonstrating a commitment to continuous improvement.”
