The following is a letter sent to Superintendent Debbie Siebert from the Chair of the ACSI/WASC accreditation team after their three-day, April 2012, visit. The letter is printed in its entirety

Dear Debbie,

Please find the attached visiting team accreditation report for Fresno Christian Schools.

The entire team was very encouraged by the academic achievements of your students and the exceptional integration of Christian values that is strongly evident in ALL of the classes and activities that we observed. One of the accreditation team members commented, “We talk about a thoroughly integrated Christian world view based on biblical principles through the entire curriculum but at Fresno Christian it?s really real.”

On every occasion your students reflected critical thinking skills and an integrated faith that can only be explained by their love of Fresno Christian Schools, your authentic Christian teachers and a truly Christ-centered environment.

The positive, kind and helpful attitude of your students is a testimony to your leadership, the support of your faithful Board of Directors and of course your outstanding teachers who serve as Christian role models. Parents and their children are facing difficult challenges like never before but the light of Jesus is shining brightly through your students at Fresno Christian Schools.

Several of us on the team are committed to praying for the success of FCS and that God will “meet all of your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”

It was my privilege to serve as Chair of your ACSI/WASC accreditation team.

With warm regards,

Clifford Daugherty, Ed.D.
Valley Christian Schools, San Jose, CA
