We believe that a successful education of a child begins with the parent! That’s why we have compiled training materials that will enable parents to implement the A.C.E. program successfully. The Quick Start Set is available for the homeschooling parent who wishes to learn how to use the A.C.E. program.

Parents are also an integral part of the campus-based school using the A.C.E. program. Procedures are set in place to provide the parent several avenues of communication with the school staff.

To get a list of schools that use the A.C.E. program in your area, please send an email to SchoolServices@aceschooloftomorrow.com. Be sure to mention your city and state.

If you are a parent or guardian wishing to start the A.C.E. curriculum with your child, you have two homeschool options: Lighthouse Christian Academy or Independent Homeschool. Please visit the Ordering Options for Homeschools page to learn more.

Your child will receive an accredited high school diploma if enrolled with Lighthouse Christian Academy (LCA), our distance learning provider. Students who dual enroll at a campus-based school through LCA or homeschool will have an advisor to help keep your child on track for graduation. LCA maintains official transcripts for each student enrolled. To learn more information or to enroll with LCA, please email lcaed@acem.org or call 1-866-746-6534.

If homeschooling independently using the A.C.E. curriculum, it is up to the parent to secure a diploma.

We urge schools and homeschools to be aware of the potential risks associated with government funding. Accepting funds can seem helpful in the moment, but government money often brings government oversight—if not immediately, then possibly in the future.

If the funds truly come with no strings attached, accepting them may be fine for now. However, it is wise to stay vigilant. Make sure you are not entering into any obligations to the government, and avoid becoming financially dependent on funding that could be altered or withdrawn.

For further information regarding school choice funding, refer to HSLDA’s resource: https://hslda.org/post/our-guide-to-the-confusing-world-of-school-choice-funding.

Curriculum and Ordering

A.C.E. diagnostic testing is used to determine skill and concept mastery. Each student should be tested before beginning to use the A.C.E. program to determine skill level and concept mastery. After a student completes the testing, he is assigned A.C.E. curriculum that meets and challenges him at his performance level in each subject. The diagnostic tests can be purchased through the A.C.E. store or accessed for free online through aceconnect.
