Accreditation -- Again

We've had the orientation meeting -- tonight begins the work in earnest (how's that for an anachronistic expression). Richard Rose, the nicest person you'd ever want to meet, was tapped for the job of coordinating the evening ESL teachers. We will spend over an hour ( half an hour of our own time) going over esoteric, non-relevant questions which will eventually become part of a document defending ourselves, turned in to the Accreditation Team. If you want to know if we are doing our job -- look at the results. We are a vocational school. Are our students learning skills? Getting jobs? Learning English? We should do fine. We are an excellent school in a district fraught with problems, the least of which is insufficient funding. But we will do it -- one question at a time.
