Accreditation

The Catholic schools of the Diocese of Sioux City are accredited by the Iowadepartment of ed logo Department of Education. Our teachers are licensed by the Iowa Department of Education as well.

Our schools meet and exceed state graduation requirements for English, math, science and social studies. In addition to meeting all state accreditation requirements the Catholic Schools Office also conduct “site visits” to each school on a rotating basis.

These visits focus on our Catholic identity, academics, governance, and operational vitality and use the National Standards and Benchmarks for Effective Catholic Elementary and Secondary Schools as guidelines.
Utilizing these two systems provides greater accountability for our schools and ensures continuous growth for our faculty and students thus allowing them to reach their full potential.
