Homeschooling
Just Like Homeschool
Does your middle schooler have difficulty comprehending lectures in traditional classes? Do you desire a safe educational environment free of bullies, violence, drugs, and sexual immorality? Ask about ACE Middle School, our 1-to-1 middle school program, where we offer one-to-one special education for the four core (math, english, science, and social science). Our core classes utilize specialized instruction with technology based and hands-on curricula. Then we give students a chance to interact with peers during extracurricular activities (i.e. art, music, dance, sewing, drama) and sports (i.e. swim team, gymnastics). We also offer a Speech Club, monthly field trips, and much more.
