Our Program

The A.C.E. curriculum is a Bible-based curriculum Kindergarten to Grade 12. The curriculum is a uniquely individualized learning program for students. Students will complete an online diagnostic test. This test will place students in the curriculum at their performance levels.

Academic achievement is one of the greatest strengths of Accelerated Christian Education. Graduates from the A.C.E. program are attending more than 1,400 colleges and universities globally with outstanding performance.

The A.C.E. program is designed around the format that builds skill upon skill. The scope and sequence ignores the concept of grade level and moves with continuous progress beginning with the first skill to be mastered. Depending on the students ability and motivation levels, students may move ahead rapidly or take as long as necessary, but each student masters the material.
