ABEKA and A.C.E. Curriculums
Two strong Bible based curriculums are used at Grace Christian School in order to insure student's success in their learning experience and to build strong Christian character.

Strong Bible Based Curriculums

The ABEKA curriculum is used for kindergarten through 2nd grades instilling a strong foundation for the early readers.

 

The Accelerated Christian Education curriculum is used for the 3rd-12th grades. 

 

Four key components come together to maximize student's learning experience.

1. Individualized – the ACE model adapts to the learning speed of your child. This allows your child to progress independently. This is unlike the “public school model” where the group is lock-stepped regardless of the student’s academic abilities.

2. Diagnosis – A diagnostic test is given to determine your child’s current academic ability and to clearly identify any learning gaps within all subjects.

3. Goal Setting – The students learn through setting daily goals and are challenged by marking their achievement. This allows your child to visualize and plan daily progress, thus establishing a lifetime appreciation for goal setting and achievement.

4. Mastery – The Biblical value of excellence in all things we do is translated into mastering subject content. This is the foundation upon which all future learning is built. Students must master a minimum of 80% of the material to advance. The curriculum contains not only excellent academic material, but is also filled with instruction in the application of godly character traits to everyday life. Scripture is used throughout each and every workbook. For more information on our curriculum, go to the ACE ministries web site (www.aceministries.com).
