For more than 40 years, ACSI has faithfully lived out its mission around the world:

To strengthen Christian schools and equip Christian educators worldwide as they prepare students academically and inspire them to become devoted followers of Jesus Christ.

Since our founding in 1978, our vision has steadfastly desired that:

ACSI will become a leading international organization that promotes Christian education and provides training and resources to Christian schools and Christian educators.

As our mission continues, ACSI is renewing our commitment to Christian schools and educators to help them deal with today’s challenging times—characterized by seismic cultural shifts and disruption. 

Today and into the future we will continue to assist, encourage and develop:

  • Schools that contribute to the public good through effective teaching and learning and that are biblically sound, academically rigorous, socially engaged, and culturally relevant; and
  • Educators who embody a biblical worldview, engage in transformational teaching and discipling, and embrace personal and professional growth.

Over the past two years, ACSI has diligently sought the Lord's guidance through prayer, and is now positioning everything under three pillars: Advancing, Access and Advocacy.

Colorado Springs, CO – The Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) is pleased to announce the promotion of Lisa Chubbic to Director of Assessment Programs. Chubbic succeeds David Smitherman, who dedicated 26 years to ACSI and led Student Assessment efforts for more than 14 years. 

In her new role, Chubbic will work alongside the team to strengthen the Student Assessment Program, ensuring Christian schools are well-supported with comprehensive information, education, training, and resources. 

This key role will ensure that participating Christian schools are equipped to maximize the effectiveness of student assessments. She will act as a key liaison with ACSI’s assessment company partner, oversee department operations, and foster strategic partnerships with other Christian school associations, driving the overall growth and success of the program. 

Brett Henry, Vice President of Educational Resources, expressed his enthusiasm for Chubbic’s promotion. 

“Lisa has been an integral part of the growth and development of the Student Assessment Program for many years,” he said. “Her high attention to detail, commitment to exceptional customer service, and evident passion for effective use of student assessment data make her the ideal person to lead the department into the future. I believe the Lord has prepared her for this moment, and I look forward to seeing how He uses her to grow the program in this next chapter.” 

Chubbic is thankful to the Lord for providing her with this opportunity to continue to serve Him in a new capacity.  

“I am truly honored and excited to accept the role of Director of Assessment Programs at ACSI. It is a privilege to contribute to our mission of promoting educational excellence grounded in faith and assisting schools along their flourishing assessment journey. I look forward to working with our dedicated team to support and enhance ACSI’s assessment programs, of which we are committed to academic excellence in Christian schools worldwide, especially supporting administrators and teachers. This is a blessed part of what I get to do each day and am thankful to God for the opportunity.”
