Immaculate Conception is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) through its Commission of Independent Schools. NEASC is a nationally recognized, non-governmental agency whose affiliated institutions include elementary schools through colleges and universities.  Accreditation of an institution by NEASC indicates that the school meets or exceeds criteria for the assessment of schools by means of periodic peer reviews. An accredited school is one which “has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated purposes through appropriate educational programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence that it will continue to do so in the future.”
