West Virginia schools have had a long-standing relationship with NCA CASI dating back into the early 20th century. Currently there are nearly 100 West Virginia public and private NCA CASI accredited schools serving more than 50,000 students. Participation in NCA CASI is a voluntary process that each school embarks on to assure its various stakeholders that it meets the high quality standards of AdvancED. The West Virginia NCA CASI office is proud to serve as a partner in our accredited schools' ongoing mission to provide a quality education for every child.

As we embark on the new accreditation process for the 21st century, we appreciate your interest in learning more about the services that AdvancED offers to schools involved in our continuous improvement process. AdvancED is the parent organization of NCA CASI and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement (SACS CASI).

We are excited about the future of accreditation and the focus on continuous school improvement in our schools. The West Virginia State office is here to support every aspect of school accreditation from administering quality assurance reviews to providing technical assistance and professional development.
