AdvancED accredited schools must adhere to the established 5 Quality Standards, which are based on national best practice. They must also create a Student Data Profile/Analysis (SDP/A) and a School Improvement Plan through the utilization of a building School Improvement Steering Committee with parent representation. Each school’s SDP/A and School Improvement Plan are posted on their school web page.
