JZ Academy is proudly accredited by the Middle States Association.
Accreditation ensures JZ Academy meets and maintains high standards, giving parents and students confidence that their time and financial investment is supported by a trusted, quality education.
WHY ACCREDITATION?
Strong Foundations of Organizational and Academic Success
MSA’s five standards and key concepts prompt deep reflection across every part of our school, yielding stronger systems and an improved academic program families can count on.
Data-Backed Improvement
MSA asks us to gather and use data from our own community, keeping improvement tied to real needs—not hypothetical opportunities.

Why we chose Middle States
1. GUIDES, NOT GATEKEEPERS
MSA is staffed by former school leaders who offer perspective, wisdom, and steady support at each step—people who have been in our shoes.
2. LEAN, FOCUSED, IMPLEMENTATION-FIRST APPROACH.
The self-study doubles as an implementation framework that produces useful artifacts—policies and one-pagers our team will actually use—sharpening identity rather than diluting it.
3. CLARITY AND CREDIBILITY.
Accreditation sharpens our mission, model, and measures into a clear narrative and signals quality recognized worldwide.
