WASC

A quick refresher about WASC. AISG has been accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) since 1987. WASC accreditation is an external quality assurance process that AISG uses to monitor student learning and set goals for school improvement. Throughout the accreditation cycle, schools address their schoolwide action plans, demonstrate that they provide high-quality learning, and practice continual self-improvement.
