ACCREDITATION MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 2018 

Integrity Christian Academy Granted Accreditation 
 

Local Christian school meets national standards for academic excellence

 Groveland, Florida – Administrators, Erika Kish and Kristine Stevens announced that Integrity Christian Academy earned accreditation from the International League of Christian Schools, or Florida League of Christian Schools, an accreditation division of League of Christian Schools.  

 “This is a monumental achievement not only for Integrity Christian Academy to be state and nationally accredited, but also for the community of Groveland and Christian education,” stated League of Christian School’s Executive Director, Michael Burroughs. “We are honored to recognize such a great school and know that students and parents will value this recognition.”

 ILCS and FLOCS provide nationally-recognized accreditation for the purpose of continuous school improvement focused on increasing student performance.  Integrity Christian Academy conducted a rigorous process of self-examination of the entire school and prepared a self-evaluation report. All program materials from all courses offered, as well as material validating governance, facilities, student services, safety and more, were sent for review to outside specialists chosen by ILCS. A team of nationally trained evaluators then traveled to the school and conducted an onsite review that included financial review, student services and review of all procedures. Based on this entire process and the teams’ report to the Accrediting Commission, Integrity Christian Academy was granted accreditation.

 The League of Christian Schools (LCS) has served quality Christian schools since 1983 as a primary choice for Christian preschool and K-12 accreditation, promoting biblical, academic, and professional excellence in its member schools. The League of Christian Schools is a nationally recognized accrediting agency as well as a nonprofit voluntary membership organization promoting quality assessment programs that focus on academic excellence at all levels (preschool through grade 12), member training which provides ongoing professional development and centers on best practice, teacher certification for qualifying educators, and integration of Christian distinctives through all practices and precepts.
