EventSchool & Community
Took part in a NEASC meeting, one of the ways a school is reviewed for accreditation.
What it was
NEASC is an association that accredits schools. Its meetings give the people who make up a school, students included, a chance to talk about how it works and where it could improve.
What I learned
It gave me a look at how a school is evaluated from the outside, and showed me that student perspectives are part of how that picture gets formed.
Why it mattered
It was a rare chance to see the systems behind school life: the standards, reviews and conversations that shape how a school runs.
