Every five years the Georgia Accrediting Commission reviews schools
that have been previously accredited through their agency. The mission of
the Georgia Accrediting Commission is twofold: (1) to establish standards
promoting instruction of high quality for children in Georgia and (2) to
encourage schools to meet the established standards. The accreditation
process is designed to establish and uphold standards, to strengthen the
quality of education in each school, and to assure its membership and the
general public that the established standards are related to the best
educational practices.
On September 19, 2007, Griffin Christian High School had their five year
review. Dr. E. H. Harris, consultant for the Georgia Accrediting
Commission conducted the review. Dr. Harris spent 40 years in public
education as assistant superintendent, interim superintendent, principal,
teacher, SACS coordinator, and board member of the Griffin RESA. Dr.
Harris was very complimentary of GCHS, its faculty and students. GCHS met
all standards for accreditation and will be recommended to the executive
board of the Georgia Accrediting Commission for full accreditation once
again. I would like to thank the official board of First Assembly, Pastor
Randy Valimont, and the staff, students, and parents of GCHS for their
continued support of the educational program. It is a blessing to be the
principal. I look forward to the next five year review as we continue to
work together for the students of GCHS.
