Holy Trinity School is a Middle States accredited institution.

  • The accreditation process examines the entire school – its philosophy and goals, its community, its programs and services, the facilities and financial stability.

  • Accreditation provides a way to manage change through regular assessment, planning, implementation, and reassessment.

  • Accreditation requires a school to establish and implement a 5-year improvement plan based upon its vision of the future.

  • Desired school-wide results are a part of the perpetual accreditation cycle that includes:
    • School self-assessment that identifies areas of strength and areas for improvement in the current educational program for students.
    • Insight and perspective from the evaluation team
    • Regular staff assessment of progress during the intervening years between full self-studies

  • The accreditation process helps to insure greater continuity of student experiences through continuous clarification of the school’s direction.

  • Participation in accreditation provides an excellent growth experience for staff who participate on visiting teams to evaluate other schools.

  • Because accreditation is a regional activity that encourages broader involvement with educators from other states and independent, public, and church-related constituencies, participants learn from the differences and benefit from the resulting professional networks.
