The Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) is enhancing its support for schools on their improvement journey around the world as a part of its Vision 2030 initiatives. The organization is aligning all efforts with its global core standards, expanding services internationally.  

Strategic changes include renaming the Flourishing Initiatives Department to the School Improvement Department, appointing Cindy Dodds as Chief School Improvement Officer, Stephen Deck as Vice President of Education Standards, and Dr. Debbie MacCullough as Senior Director of School Improvement. 

ACSI President & CEO Dr. Larry Taylor believes that these strategic shifts reflect ACSI’s continued commitment to strengthening Christian schools and advancing its Vision 2030 goals. 

“We are always ensuring that our leadership team is best postured to make the greatest impact possible in the important work they’re doing,” he said. “We are essentially changing the name of the department so that it clearly communicates the primary goal—school improvement. Continuing to place a large emphasis on our Flourishing Schools research, the School Improvement Department will help to support and elevate our entire global school community. Consequently, we are aligning three current positions.”  

Dodds, who most recently served as Chief of Flourishing Initiatives for ACSI, assumes her role as Chief School Improvement Officer. She will continue to provide vision and oversight for all departmental efforts.  

ACSI is also pleased to announce Deck as VP of Education Standards. Previously serving as Senior Director of Accreditation and Credentialing for ACSI, Deck will oversee global accreditation, school improvement, and credentialing initiatives.  

ACSI is also pleased to announce the appointment of MacCullough as Senior Director of School Improvement. Previously serving as ACSI Director of Global Core Standards, MacCullough is eager to broaden her impact in this new role.
