My daughter graduated from ACA in 2007 and had been there since kindergarten. It was the best decision we ever made for her. She received a stellar education and breezed through four years of college. Not only was she prepared academically and socially but she was prepared spiritually and was equipped to defend her faith. I thank God for ACA.

My son loves this school and so do we. After attending VERITAS in 6th, 7th and 8th, we are thanking God for ACA. Our son is bright and has a 4.0 with all honors classes. He is of an ethnic look yet we have experienced no issues at all with regards to any prejudice in fact it has been just the opposite. All the students and faculty are great and very committed to Godly relationship and support. Admissions policies are such that if one parent is not a "Born Again Believer" and the child has any history of being a characterized disruption to others-do not apply-ACA is a private school for learning and not a babysitting institution for uninvolved parents of unruly children. There are plenty of private schools who will take your child as long as you can write the check, ACA is not one of them and my family is thankful for that.

When we moved to western NC halfway through the school year, I worried about putting my son into a new school. We researched every public, private and Christian school in the area looking for the right balance of academics, faith formation, athletics, and extracurrcular activities. We found that balance at ACA. Not only are the academics much stronger than in the public schools, but our son was accepted into the classroom from day one as just another student, not the "new guy." He has loved his time at ACA, gotten highly involved in sports and academic enrichment programs and has been placed a grade year ahead in math as he tested well in the spring. Every school has issues and ACA is no exception. I find that being involved with the school, having an open line of communication with teachers, and talking every day with my son about school helps nip problems in the bud. I highly recommend ACA to any parent looking for a well-rounded, college-prep curriculum that is taught in a loving, Christian environment for their children.

Incredible teachers with a holistic approach to teaching. My son is in 5th grade, first year here. I wish we would have been here sooner.

Really good and becoming great. A real culture of relationship that leads to excellence in every sphere . . . academics, fine arts, athletics. Two fine graduates, two to go.

We chose ACA when our oldest daughter was in first grade. She's now set to graduate and we're very pleased with the education she and her three siblings have received there.

Two of my children graduated, and my youngest is a sophomore. We chose ACA because we thought it was the best school in Western North Carolina. Ten years later, we know it is the best school for our children. The academics are challenging. The biblical foundation is laid in every class. (How can you know anything without knowing the Author and Creator of everything?) Teachers are highly qualified and professional. Even the kids are pretty nice. Athletics and the Fine Arts are practiced at a high level. ACA isn't the school for everyone, but it's well worth a visit.

I graduated from ACA in 2003 after going there since first grade. It provided me with great opportunities and gave me a strong foundation of faith to take into the world.

I have had two children at ACA for the last six years. The teachers have been great and my kids are thriving. It is wonderful to have a school where teachers care about their students and students are getting a Christian education with academic excellence. The new facility is great! We also love participating in athletics!

We have had two children at ACA, one graduated 2000, the other, this year. Both were accepted at top colleges/university and were well prepared to face academic and life challenges! What a blessing this school is to Christian families.
