Governor Youngkin commended Evergreen for providing the kind of education where students are challenged to apply their faith to contemporary issues facing our world today. He concluded his message to graduates with this charge: “Go out into the world with what you have been given. Go out into the world and be confident. Go out in the world and stand strong in your faith. Go out into the world with hope in the Lord and do not worry. You will soar!”

ECS has been granted full accreditation from Middle States Association Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools (MSA-CESS) without stipulations (meaning there were no changes needing to be made before taking effect), and extends through the year 2031.

After representatives from MSA (Middle States Association Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools) visited our school and did a thorough review our curriculum, policies and faculty and interviewed parents, students, board members, and staff, they have recommended ECS for full accreditation without any stipulations. This is the highest recommendation that MSA awards. Their report has already been forwarded to MSA which will make the official pronouncement of accreditation later this semester. One of the reasons for going through accreditation is it helps us find ways to improve our school. But our commitment to continuous school improvement is grounded in a much higher authority.
