Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he grows old, he will not depart from it. – Proverbs 22:6

 Mission Statement

This school seeks to provide instruction in Biblical training, spiritual growth, academic mastery, and physical development in order to help each student reach his or her full potential in Christ.

Accelerated Christian Education

At JCA we use the Accelerated Christian Education curriculum called PACEs. PACE is an acronym that stands for Packet of Accelerated Christian Education. A.C.E. School of Tomorrow has taken the conventional-style textbook and divided it into bite-sized, achievable booklets called PACEs. Each level consists of 12 PACEs per subject. PACEs integrate Godly character-building lessons into academic content, and activities are carefully designed to develop thinking skills and create mastery learning. A.C.E provides an unparalleled system of individualized and independent learning through PACEs. This allows students to absorb subject material according to their own learning ability.

PACEs are purchased prior to the first day of school and must be paid for at that time. Price is dependent solely upon the level at which the student is at, generally it is between $200-$250 per year.
