Procedure

Welcome to the website of the Arkansas Nonpublic School Accrediting Association. With excellence in education as our goal, ANSAA works closely with nonpublic schools throughout Arkansas to provide quality education. Membership allows schools the opportunity to be a part of a cooperative effort to improve education at the state and local levels. The accreditation process involves the application of standards through a self-study and an annual review of the school’s progress. Accreditation also offers assurance to the school community that the school is committed to continuous improvement.

We hope you will find the website useful and welcome any suggestions that would assist you in your quest for quality education. If you need any assistance, please feel free to contact the ANSAA office. We look forward to working together to advance educational excellence in the state of Arkansas.

Sincerely,

Beverly Gray, ANSAA Executive Director
