ACE Enrichment
Exclusively Divine Mercy Catholic Academy
Live your EXCELLENCE
The mission of the Divine Mercy School system is to help each student to reach his/her full potential. The ACE Enrichment program is a valuable asset that assists our school as we move forward attempting to reach the needs of all students. This program identifies the brightest children in grades 4, 5, and 6 and exposes them to topics and experiences that feed their inquisitive minds.
Below is an outline of the standards and activities that will challenge the students this year. My daughter, also an educator, tells me, "Gifted students need gifted activities." That is what we are attempting to do in the ACE Enrichment Program - provide gifted activities while stepping out of our comfort zone to learn more.
Gentle Role Model
Larry Olek taught the children about service, self-respect, and their inner light.
Larry said, "Let your light shine. Do not keep it under a bushel where no one can see it. Keep it visible , out in the open."
“Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God’s side, for God is always right.” – Abraham Lincoln
