The Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) is a global institutional accreditor recognized by the United States Secretary of Education since 1952. As an accreditor and member of the regulatory triad, MSCHE assures students and the public of the educational quality for its over 500 institutions of higher education. The Commission’s accreditation process ensures institutional accountability, self-appraisal, improvement, and innovation through peer review and the rigorous application of standards within the context of institutional mission.
St. Katherine of Siena Catholic School is accredited by the Middle States Association. Unlike many public schools and most charter schools, Catholic schools opt into this intensive process. Middle States evaluations are a rigorous process where a school community spends two years working internally and with an external team of school evaluators to set goals and measure school performance.
Our school is rooted in the Catholic faith. As such, we provide a loving, child-centered environment for our students. We build a community of faith. The quality of our academic program is equally important which is why we invest time and money on Middle States. To learn more about the accreditation process, visit the Middle States website.
