District reports continued NEASC accreditation, growth in concurrent courses
Summary
An administrator told the committee the commission approved continued NEASC accreditation; the district reported grade‑level enrollments and said it currently offers 11 concurrent enrollment courses through Central Maine Community College.
Susan, an administrator with the Lisbon School Department, presented the high‑school and district academic report and called out the district’s latest accreditation status.
"We did receive the final NEASC report," Susan told the committee, and said the commission "has approved our school's continued accreditation." She also provided grade‑level enrollment counts at the high school (grade 9: 81; grade 10: 89; grade 11: 88; grade 12: 85) and said the district had completed AP testing and would begin MWEA assessments the following day.
Susan described concurrent enrollment opportunities the district offers: "We've had 11 concurrent courses this year," she said, and confirmed the program is currently run through Central Maine Community College while the district explores potential expansion.
Committee members asked follow‑up questions about where the courses are taught and whether partnerships might broaden; Susan said the district is working directly with Central Maine Community College at present. The committee flagged the NEASC report for fuller review at the next workshop.
The discussion was informational; the board did not take formal action in this agenda item.
