Oklahoma Private Schools Accrediting Association

The purpose of the OPSAC Commission is to assist the State Board of Education by assuring the educational quality and compliance with applicable rules of the Board by recognized, accredited private schools in the state.
The OPSAC Commission serves in an advisory capacity to the State Superintendent of Schools. It evaluates the capacity of the Oklahoma non-public school accrediting associations for assessing and making judgments about educational quality. If OPSAC recommends recognition of an association to the Superintendent and if that recommendation is approved, schools accredited by that association will be deemed accredited schools by the State Superintendent of Schools and will be so listed in the Oklahoma School Directory that is published annually by the Oklahoma State Department of Education.
Any private school that is accredited by an OPSAC-recognized accrediting association is recognized by the State Department of Education as an accredited school. This acknowledgment of accreditation ensures that students are able to transfer between public and private schools and that the service of state certified teachers in accredited private schools is recognized by the state. The intent is that all privileges extended to state accredited private schools be also extended to private schools accredited by OPSAC-recognized accrediting agencies.
