Why would a conventional non-public school choose not to become accredited?
The financial cost and staff time involved are major reasons. It will usually cause the non-public school to pass the financial cost of it on to the school parents. Many religious schools often cite theological autonomy as the reason. Such schools are sensitive to outside-of-the-school professional educators evaluating the school’s religious curriculum, philosophy and practices. Other schools do not seek it simply because there is no demand from the school clientele for it.
