ACSI Bible Assessment Measure Biblical Literacy To Inform Instruction
Welcome Parents & Students
“We will not hide them from their descendants; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.” Psalm 78:4
Parents
Even though your baby never came home with an instruction manual, God’s Word is the best guide for parenting. At ACSI, we believe education is best from a biblical worldview. We also believe in educational freedom and parent-school choice because you know your child far better than anyone else. Whether you wish to learn more about ways to fund Christian schooling for your child or resources such as textbooks or online learning you can use at home, ACSI is here to help you on your parenting journey.
We invite you to explore the tabs to the left to learn about resources for parents.
Children's Tuition Fund
Children’s Tuition Fund (CTF), a ministry of ACSI, supports and advocates for educational choice and innovation through scholarship tax-credit programs that provide parents the opportunity to choose an education that is the best fit for their children.
Educational Resources
ACSI is committed to providing educational resources to help you and your child.
Measure biblical literacy to inform instruction through the ACSI Bible Assessment. This stand-along standardized test is now available in an online or paper/pencil format.
Sevenstar provides solid, biblically based academic resources to meet a wide range of educational needs from student credit recovery and supplemental learning to complete online learning.
Many homeschool families enjoy Purposeful Design textbooks created by ACSI because of hands-on learning activities intentionally rooted in biblical truth to eternally transform the hearts and lives of your children.
Faith Teaches
Faith Teaches in Every Moment, Every Day and Every Way.
Through God’s original and best design, parents, both a mother and father, are the primary teachers to infuse biblical faith in a child’s life. We believe that parents should be supported by both a strong church and Christian education community.

Homeschool Family Membership
Participate in ACSI Student Activities and learn best practices for educating your child through the ACSI Homeschool
family membership. This annual membership provides access to quality, engaging experiences for your student as well as important information to be the best parent educator for your family.
School Choice
As a parent, school choice is an educational freedom that you have. Ed Choice (2023) says that “school choice allows public education funds to follow students to schools or services that best fit their needs.” At ACSI, we believe that Christian education is the best choice whether that is part of a private Christian school, home school or another educational environment.

Why Christian Schooling?
The choice you make for your children's education shapes them academically, spiritually, and in their worldview and skills. At Christian schools, the faculty and staff are equipped to address each of these developing areas of a child's life. These schools take seriously the responsibility to develop children's minds, but they don't distance God from academics. They know that developing skills in young people is essential to helping them reach their God-given potential.
Christian educators help cultivate a worldview in which God has His rightful place, and they look to the Bible for guidance in answering life's big questions. These teachers enhance children's spiritual development in an intentional, nurturing manner.
A Christian education at an ACSI member school will help your child grow spiritually, academically, and culturally. In fact, the recent Cardus Education Survey and other education studies show that ACSI schools develop the whole child better than any other type of school. Watch this brief video to learn how!
