Homeschool Programs for K-12 Students
Accelerated Christian Education (ACE) Curriculum:MCA has chosen to use the A.C.E. curriculum. This curriculum is written in small work/text booklets called PACEs. Most PACEs are generally from twenty-seven to forty-three pages in length. There are twelve PACEs in each subject to complete a year’s work. The student works in five subjects at the time, so they complete sixty PACEs each year. The curriculum is Biblical, self-instructional, individualized, and academically sound.
Students learn at their own speed. The PACEs introduce one concept at a time, and each concept is visualized and illustrated by examples. As you move your student through each activity, he/she has the opportunity to go back over the information and examples until it is totally understood.
