Standards Of Accreditation To Be Tightened
AUGUSTA The chief of the Bureau of Secondary Education says new standards for approval and accreditation of secondary schools will be stricter in some academic fields and more liberal in areas like health and physical education. Dr Joseph Devitt notes the changes broaden the concept of a good school and emphasize teacher preparation, smaller class sizes, fewer non teaching duties, and cross grade cooperation for a coordinated program. Approval is mandatory for tuition approvals and accreditation marks superior performance. 53 of Maine's 249 secondary schools are accredited, while many approved schools lack accreditation due to gaps in guidance counseling libraries or sufficient classrooms for teachers.
