for volunteers participating in accreditation visits for public elementary, middle, and/or high schools
If you received an invitation to serve as a member of a NEASC Accreditation Visiting Team and are willing to accept the role, please accept the thanks of the Commission on Public Schools for the time and energy you will devote to the task. We wish you the best in your assignment.
Prior to your scheduled visit, your Team Chair will contact you regarding the specifics of the visit and the information on how to access the school’s Self-Reflection through NEASC's Accreditation Portal. Additional information will be provided to you through the NEASC-CPS office.
Lodging, meals, and reimbursement for mileage will be paid for by the host school. All Visiting Team Members will receive a certificate of participation.
If you have any questions about the team visit please don't hesitate to contact us.
