ACIS, a regional accrediting agency for independent schools, is recognized by the National Association of Independent Schools; the largest and most recognized organization of independent schools in the nation. The comprehensive accrediting process includes a thorough review of the school's curriculum, facilities, resources, personnel/faculty, extra-curricular programs, governance, financial sustainability, and community. The entire process takes a minimum of three years and includes a candidacy application, a thorough self-study, and two separate and lengthy visits by representatives of ACIS and educators from other member schools.  Each school must complete the process every seven years.

The accreditation was completed just three months after the school moved into its new state of the art $10 million facility. The new facility sits on eleven acres and includes state of the art classrooms, smartboard technology, a fully equipped science lab, a cafeteria adaptable for performing arts, administrative offices, library, technology lab, an art studio, music studio, dance studio, and a great hall for community and cultural events. In addition to this facility that serves students in Kindergarten-Eighth grade, the school also has a renovated early childhood facility for students aged two-pre-kindergarten.     

Our web site provides general information about our programs and curriculum. We encourage you schedule a personal visit and conference with our Head of School, Mr. Ben Jackson, to experience the environment and to learn how Evergreen Country Day School can meet the needs of your child.

One Dream: One Goal

In 2004, and 2005, Evergreen Country Day School purchased 11 acres of land in the Tepees Development at El Rancho and a dedicated early childhood facility. To support future growth, a state-of-the-art Campus Center is under development to support our K-8 programs, athletics, and administration. Join us as we build on a rich history of over 37 years in the Evergreen Community. Click here for more information on this exciting project.
