Aligning Accreditation Standards to Quaglia School Voice Surveys: The Western Association of Schools and Colleges – California

The California Department of Education (CDE) has collaborated with ACS WASC in order to align the accreditation process with the planning process for California public schools required by state and federal statues in the Single Plan for Student Achievement and the Local Control Accountability Plan. Quaglia School Voice Surveys are an innovative tool for schools to evaluate the five criteria as well as to provide insights for overall school improvement. There are three Quaglia School Voice Surveys: one for students, one for staff, and one for parents. The charts in this document align the five criteria with selected statements from each of the surveys.
