Our speaker for the November meeting is Barry R. Groves. Doctor Groves is the current President of the Accrediting Commission for Schools, Western Association of Schools and Colleges (ACS-WASC), the school accreditation body for this region. He speaks on the topic "Are California Public Schools as Good Now as When I Went to School?"

This is an unusual opportunity to hear a speaker from the top echelon influencing the present course of education.

The ACS-WASC, extends its services to over 5,000 public, independent, church-related, and proprietary pre-K–12 and adult schools, it works with 18 associations in joint accreditation processes, and collaborates with other organizations such as the California Department of Education (CDE) to align the accreditation process with the planning process for California public schools required by state and federal statutes. The ‘ACS

WASC/CDE Focus on Learning Joint Process Guide’ is the collaborative process that helps schools identify and implement school improvement needs and supports accountability.
