NEASC Accreditation
St. Pius V School has been accredited by the New England Association of Schools & Colleges (NEASC) since 1995. To maintain our accreditation, every ten years an extensive self-study report is submitted and validated by visiting teams comprised of committees of educators assembled and trained by the NEASC. The self-study reports are designed to demonstrate how St. Pius V School fulfills its mission and meets the standards for accreditation. The faculty and administration of St. Pius V School carefully carries out the self-study, identifying both strengths and weaknesses of the school and plans and strategies for school improvement. Upon completion of all requirements outlined by the NEASC, St. Pius V School is granted continued accreditation.
The most recent visiting committee in 2014 commended the school for:
- creating a positive culture and climate that reflects Gospel values and Christian stewardship
- supporting the individual needs of each child and contributing to the success of each child
- integrating technology into the curriculum
St. Pius V School is proud of its membership in NEASC and is grateful to the Commission for its validation of our school's value. The school is proud that NEASC's Commission on Independent Schools accepted the school's Two-year Interim Report in June of 2016 and the Five-year Interim Report in April 2019. We are currently preparing our self-study for our 2024 reaccreditation.
