Superintendent Wally Cox announced Friday that Highlands County was granted District Accreditation from the AdvancedEd Accreditation Commission, the national commission that confers the accreditation seal of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement.
This means that the district and all of its schools are accredited and that Highlands County is recognized across the nation as a quality school system.
The district's accreditation is for a five-year term with regular monitoring of progress and reporting occurring during the term.
"District Accreditation as conferred by the AdvancedED Accreditation Commission provides Highlands County a nationally-recognized mark of quality for our district and all the schools within our district," Cox said. "It demonstrates to our community our commitment to excellence, our openness to external review and feedback and our desire to be the best we can on behalf of the students we serve."
