Tom Jones, Director for the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and AdvancedEd, joins us on this show to talk about the review team’s impression of Baldwin County Public Schools. More than 700 people from the community and within the school system were interviewed by the review team. At the conclusion, the group recommended to SACS/AdvancedEd that the Baldwin County Public School System should be accredited. Accreditation on a district level is a first for the school system. In the past, accreditation was sought on an individual school basis.
