Is Adison Online High School accredited?

Answer 1

Answer 1: Yes, it is accredited by (IACOOS), International Accreditation Committee of Online High Schools, but if you check the Related Link below, you'll find Adison and IACOOS are both located at the same P.O. Box. Independent, wouldn't you think?

Answer 2: Any school is legitimate if it is accredited. However you need to understand a tiny bit about how accreditation works. The school you are asking about Adison High is an accredited school. Schools may change or update their accreditation status, depending on the needs of their students, or to become a more attractive option for students.

These accreditation agencies monitor the quality of educational programs offered by a school. Department of education monitors these accreditation agencies.

Answer 3: I'm sorry, but the second answer is incorrect; and likely contributed, here, by a diploma millist. Or, if not, then it was contributed by someone who doesn't actually know the "tiny bit about how accreditation works" cited in his/her second sentence, and about which s/he thought s/he was educating the questioner in the rest of what s/he wrote.

The first answer is trying to convey that both Adison and its alleged accreditor are bogus because they both share the same PO Box address. Instead of asking what the questioner thinks of that, though, s/he just should have said, directly, and unambiguously, that Adison is a diploma mill; that is "accreditor" is bogus; and that Adison's high school "diploma" isn't worth the paper on which it's written.

Had answerer #1 done that, s/he would have been correct; and inestimably more helpful.

TO BE CLEAR: Adison is a good-for-nothing diploma mill. Its diplomas aren't worth the paper on which they're written. The so-called "International Accreditation Committee of Online High Schools" (IACOOS) is not a real accreditor...

...but we know that not only because IACOOS and Adison share the same postal address (most diploma mill operators are smarter than that; so thank you, Adison/IACOOS, for being so stupid, and making it so easy for us).

We also know that Adison and IACOOS are good-for-nothing because in the United States, only the six big "regional" accreditors, approved by the US Department of Education (USDE), may accredit high schools.

Yes, there are USDE-approved "national" accreditors, and their accreditation is of very good quality. However, there is a decided anti-"national" and pro-"regional" accreditation bias regarding high school diplomas among employers, colleges/universities, the military, etc. Only a "regionally" accredited high school diploma has any real value in the real world.

And IACOOS is not one of the six big "regional" accreditors. In fact, it's not even one of the USDE-approved "national" accreditors. In fact, it's not USDE-approved -- or approved by anyone else, for that matter -- at all!

Avoid Adison -- and IACOOS -- like the plague!

Answer 2

No. By it's own admission, the "accrediting agency" it says it belongs to is not recognized by CHEA ( Council on Higher Education Accreditation). See the Related Link below.

Highschool online ...I think this is not a good idea for the student.
