Accreditation
The ARJE is currently undergoing a process to evaluate our Accreditation program and we have paused the awarding of accreditation at this time.
ARJE Accredited Schools

+ Retired
To date, those congregations who have been granted Accreditation beginning 2011 through 2018 are active accreditations. Any other accreditation from 1978 to 2010 are not current and the religious schools of these congregations would need to complete the accreditation process again to maintain accreditation status.
