teach [students] how to learn for themselves; and whatever
instruction fails to do this is effort spent in vain”.

The Academy's Philosophy & Mission
Philosophy:
Character education is ACE’s priority. Because inner character drives all areas of a
person’s life, a student who is trained to focus on motives rather than outward actions
will consequently perform at his/her highest ability level. Regular attendance, superior
scholastic achievement, polite classroom behavior, courteous treatment of peers, and
good citizenship will all result from helping pupils to understand, form, and practice core
ethical values.
Mission:
The mission of ACE is to increase student learning and achievement through prioritizing
the development of good character. The pillars of its comprehensive educational
program are:
1) working collaboratively with parents/families as equal partners,
2) utilizing an integrated classical curriculum, and
3) operating year-round.
Vision:
ACE will provide a year-round, comprehensive, classical education program,
customized to fit the needs of its students. ACE will proactively target underserved
students currently disengaged from public education, primarily those who are presently
home-schooled.
