Valentine Community Schools must engage in continuous school improvement in order to maintain its accreditation. Accreditation is designed to help schools boost their ongoing performance efforts for the benefit of their students. Because of the district's geographic location, we are accredited through North Central Accreditation. Previously, the district partnered with Cognia, but in 2023, Valentine Community Schools decided to switch to the Nebraska Continuous Improvement Model. This site is dedicated to the efforts of Valentine Community Schools as we engage in continuous improvement for all the students in our schools.
The Nebraska Department of Education has implemented AQuESTT to raise the level of academic achievement through planning, policy formulation, and evaluation, including fiscal accountability, that improves the quality of education accessible to all students.
