Testimonials
"ACIS has provided my family with an amazing community for the past 5 years. I'm so thankful for the relationships we have with our teachers as well as the other parents in the program. My children LOVE attending campus days."
-Kim Staley, ACIS Parent
"ACIS is just the perfect fit for my son. We are entering into our second year with ACIS and our whole family is thrilled. Everyone at ACIS is infinitely understanding, patient, and kind. It is demonstrated in what the students and families take away from the program, and how comfortable and cared for my son feels on campus. It is such a cooperative and peaceful environment. We are so grateful for the families and advisors who we have had the honor of befriending. This program as helped our whole family learn and grow."
-Paloma Avila, ACIS parent
"Thank you dearly for all that you do. We are deeply grateful to be a part of ACIS. It was such a difficult decision to choose to homeschool. I meditated over it for many weeks. When I was finally able to lose some of the brain clutter, and truly listen, the answer was clear and peaceful. My son has grown in so many remarkable ways. He is now allowed to dive into his best self. (AND, how crazy that the whole world is now homeschooling?!) In any case, we feel blessed by this community. "
-Eden Jacobsen, ACIS parent
"We just wanted to say thank you for everything you do for our school family. It was already a lot before the quarantine, so we think you are even more amazing now. "
-Noelle Singh, ACIS parent
