Maris Sella School received notification via a letter dated February 2, 2017, that the school met all the criteria and was granted Initial Accreditation Status through June 30, 2020.

The initial Self-Study Training, arranged by the Republic of Palau Ministry of Education was held on November 1, 2018, with Mr. Pat Lickiss. The entire administration, faculty and staff attended the one-day training. A second training was held on April 17, 2019, with Mr. Doug Paulson and the Maris Sella Leadership Team to further clarify the Self-Study Process. The WASC process has been a valuable learning experience; however it has been difficult for the small number of teachers to balance regular homeroom and classroom responsibilities while at the same time meeting to work on the report to meet the deadline.
