Eastern Christian School Recognized as Member of the Council on Educational Standards and Accountability (CESA)

Eastern Christian School is honored to announce its acceptance as a member of the Council on Educational Standards and Accountability (CESA), a national organization that unites excellent Christian schools in the country. This recognition affirms EC’s continued pursuit of the highest standards in Christ-centered education and places the school among a group of institutions that are leading the way in mission-focused innovation, leadership, and educational distinction.

CESA membership is an ongoing commitment to accountability, collaboration, and transformation. Schools accepted into CESA share high standards across key areas including academic achievement, spiritual formation, leadership development, and institutional sustainability. Eastern Christian’s membership demonstrates to current and prospective families that we are committed to maintaining rigorous standards, pursuing continuous improvement, and stewarding the resources entrusted to us for the glory of God.

“This is a milestone for our school,” said Head of School Ruth Kuder. “We are grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with and learn from other excellent Christian schools across the country. Most importantly, this membership aligns with our mission to engage the mind, nurture the spirit, and transform the world. We are excited about the ways this partnership will bless our students, families, and broader EC community.”

As a CESA member school, Eastern Christian will participate in leadership cohorts, contribute to national conversations about best practices in Christian education, and engage in regular peer accountability, all while maintaining our deeply rooted Reformed Christian worldview. This recognition is also a testament to the collective effort of EC’s faculty, staff, board, and community to equip students to act as Christ’s transforming agents.
