Help Start Schools
What does your gift support?
Because of the massive acceptance of school choice in 17 states (and growing), our research shows the potential demand across private education of over 1 million “seats” for students within 3-5 years. If we could be ready with 500,000 of those seats available at classical Christian schools, we could be well on our way to recovering the form of education America’s founding fathers experienced. And, if we could assure our present schools had access to excellent resources, we could be confident that these schools were exceptional and effective.
This past year, the ACCS has worked to lead an alliance of organizations that could ensure this growth stays true to our long-time mission – classical, Christian, conservative, and cost affordable for parents. Turning Point Education just happened to see things the same way. We joined forces with them, the Heritage Foundation, and several other groups just as we entered 2025. Little did we imagine the tragic assassination several months later of our friend Charlie Kirk. Now, our growth projections have been dramatically moved up in time. Over 1,000 requests to help start schools flooded in through Turning Point Education, and they keep coming at an escalating pace. We’ve been asked to meet this demand.
The ACCS, anticipating the growth if not the timing, had entered into a purchase agreement midway through 2025 with Concordis Partners, an organization that has a proven record of turn-key school assistance. We had planned to set this organization about the work of founding up to 50 schools per year. Clearly, our dreams and plans weren’t big enough! As we look forward to 2026, we see the potential for thousands of classical Christian schools to start, changing the landscape of education in America. I have to admit that, while we’re now situated to make that growth a reality, we need an influx of resources to seize this opportunity.
Train Our Teachers
What does your gift support?
The ACCS is excited to announce the launch of our in-house Teacher Training Center at the Boise Headquarters. One of the greatest needs in CCE schools is quality training for teachers and leaders. Using our Member Resource Center, member schools can log in to free video courses produced by the ACCS.
Your donation helps us continue the work in the studio. It helps cover travel costs for expert teachers and administrators who will be flying in to record sessions. It supports our staff who will be overseeing this massive project that will continue for years to come and impact thousands of teachers.
Grow the Movement
What does your gift support?
If you read Battle for the American Mind by Pete Hegseth and David Goodwin, you know that the future of Christian civilization is in the balance. For too long, we’ve let our children grow up to become instruments of the state, rather than servants of Jesus Christ and His kingdom.
About 100 years ago, the progressives put the polishing touches on their newly formed public school system designed to give them the power they needed to achieve their vision for America. We now know that vision was far from a Christian one. Now, we can advance a new culture and a new commitment to raise up our children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. Please join with us in a task that, while it might not seem like it, can truly change the future of our nation.
Because of the massive acceptance of school choice in 17 states (and growing), our research shows the potential demand across private education of over 1 million “seats” for students within 3-5 years. If we could be ready with 500,000 of those seats available at classical Christian schools, we could be well on our way to recovering the form of education America’s founding fathers experienced.
Your donation helps the ACCS expand our reach through our print publications, digital newsletters, and continual outreach to influential people at the national level.
