Commendations for MNOHS!

When first accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (AdvancED), MNOHS received four commendations that still guide our work.  The accreditation review team noted that even one commendation is rare for a new candidate school, a small school or an online school—and MNOHS was all three!

• The school exhibits strong, shared dedication from faculty and staff to the mission and vision.
• The school exhibits exceptional commitment to help each student succeed as an individual.
• MNOHS has worked to achieve a high level of trust, establishing a safe and caring environment for all.
• MNOHS is fully committed to innovate and to provide resources to continuously improve.
