This question arises often, and it is perhaps one
of the most misunderstood words and concepts of our time.
Accreditation actually means that some outside agency or group has
evaluated your program and agrees that it meets or exceeds
standards established by that agency. It does not mean control.
Rather, it means endorsement.
State accreditation means control,
because the government will not endorse what it cannot control.
We are not seeking state accreditation for the Academy, because we
are not willing to teach humanism, evolution, feminism, gay
rights, and the rest of the NEA agenda.
The accreditation we have received means that a
group of like-minded educators has looked at our program and given
us thumbs up. |
