On April 26-28, 2010, Norton
City Public Schools hosted an AdvancED Quality Assurance Review
Team that visited the district and its schools to evaluate the
district's adherence to the AdvancED accreditation standards and
to make a recommendation for national accreditation.
Comprised of five trained
professionals from three states, the team reviewed district
documents and performance data; interviewed over 75 district,
school, and community stakeholders; conducted site visits to both
schools; and, observed district and school practices.
The team provided both
commendations and recommendations to our division that will assist
us in our efforts to enhance the school improvement
process. Overall, the team found that Norton City Schools met the
requirements for AdvancED accreditation. The team announced that
it will be recommending the division for District Accreditation.
Their recommendation will be reviewed and acted upon by the
national AdvancED Accreditation Commission in the coming months.
Parents and interested community
members can learn more about the District Accreditation Process at
