PCSB recently approved approve a new accrediting body. KIPP Foundation, a national network of college-prep schools, was unanimously approved to act as an accrediting body for DC public charter schools.

What this essentially means is KIPP National Foundation has the authority to subject all KIPP DC schools to their “Healthy Schools and Regions” Framework requirements, as opposed to another framework, like Middle States.   The Healthy Schools and Regions framework is a rigorous college-preparatory curriculum.  PCSB reviewed the framework and deemed it to be a valid measure of school performance for one of the District’s highest-performing charter schools.
