The mission of SAIS is to strengthen member schools by providing high quality accreditation processes, comprehensive professional growth opportunities, and visionary leadership development programs.SAIS began its organizational life in 1903 as the Mid-South Association of Independent Schools (MAIS), providing training for teachers in private schools and some early public schools in the Southeastern states. In 1953, another organization began as the Southern Association of Independent Schools, providing a forum for independent school administrators to work with public schools through the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) and to contribute to the larger interest in regional accreditation. MAIS and SAIS merged in 1986 to form the present-day SAIS, with an emphasis on accreditation and professional development.The focus of SAIS’s interest when it began in 1953 was to develop and maintain relationships with the expanding organization of SACS in order to ensure significant input from independent schools into the exploding world of public school accreditation. The post-WWII years of baby booming, facility planning, teacher training, and legislative entitlement funding eclipsed the scope and role of private education in America close to the current level of service.Part of this history of negotiating standards in a predominantly public school-oriented world of education caused SAIS to embark on its own method of accreditation in the late '90s. The efforts resulted in the "SAIS-only" method available to member schools.
