Richmond Times-Dispatch: Virginia schools won’t receive normal accreditation ratings from the Department of Education again in 2021-22.
Superintendent of Public Instruction James Lane announced Tuesday that he is waiving annual school accreditation for the 2021-22 academic year, a move a state-appointed panel recommended to the K-12 schools chief earlier this year. Instead, all schools will be assigned a rating of “Accreditation Waived.” That’s the same rating they’ve received for 2020-21 after COVID-19 upended the end to this school year, including the forced cancellation of standardized tests.
