School Improvement and Accreditation: How AMS Can Support Your School's Goals

Abstract/Notes: Benefits of AMS school accreditation include: * Providing a road map for ongoing reflection, evaluation, and improvement of programs * Offering families assurance of a quality Montessori education at a school that meets a global standard of excellence * Promoting community among staff members who are integral to the mission and vision of the school * Being recognized in many states that grant AMS-accredited schools significant advantages, such as recognition within a state's quality rating and improvement system (QRIS) or exemption from particular state licensing requirements * Recognition by the National Council for Private School Accreditation, providing automatic dual accreditation when AMS accreditation is granted * Enabling cooperative accreditation with 20+ national and regional accrediting associations-earning multiple accreditations for the work of one! [...]schools incrementally work through the verification, reflection, and strategic planning of the school accreditation process. Promoting the delivery of quality Montessori education is a priority of AMS, so we sought to design a method of support for our member schools to pursue continuous improvement that could lead to accreditation in a Montessori way-incrementally and at a manageable pace that suits each individual school.

Abstract/Notes: A Head Start Program operating in Kansas City since 1965 was viewed as inadequate because enrollment was limited to about 600 children per year. The Model Cities Agency determined to provide a program for the remainder of the children in the Model Cities neighborhoods. The programs developed were differentiated administratively for the purposes of this evaluation and the program considered a single entity and referred to as Early Childhood Education. These questions were developed as evaluation goals: What specific educational approaches were provided?; To what degree do the children grow to the stated objectives?; Do these programs meet the emotional, social, physical, and intellectual needs of the program's four-year-old children?; Do these children grow differentially?; Are specified goals reached as anticipated by staff?; What program differences account for student growth differences?; Do parents in the parent education component change relevant to their children's development?; Are these programs complementary with kindergarten programs of urban schools?; What are the effects of staff development activities?; Is program administration effective?; Are children with special problems provided assistance in achievement of program objectives?; And what program changes should be made? Each question is treated in succession and is detailed. Summaries giving the main thrust are provided after each section. (RC)
