Accreditations

Accreditation reflects a school’s trustworthiness in the process of providing a quality educational program. Therefore, Christian Academy of America makes every effort to meet or exceed state and national educational guidelines. CAA is accredited both regionally and nationally, and has been serving families for over thirty years. Additionally, CAA has partnered with various organizations to expand the opportunities and resources available to our students.

CAA is fully accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools/Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools (MSA/CESS). MSA is a regional accrediting association that accredits both public and non-public educational institutions. Programs of study accredited by MSA are part of an international educational network whose members have demonstrated success in educating students. MSA has worldwide recognition as a symbol of quality academic schools, and rigorous standards of accreditation provide the following direct benefits for parents and students:

  1. 1. Ease in transferring credits from one school to another
  2. 2. Greater access to federal loans, scholarships, post-secondary education, and military programs that require students to have attended a school with accreditation
  3. 3. Institutional commitment to raising student performance and accountability
