It has been a great place to go to school. All of my classes are very rigorous and have prepared me for college. My math teachers were amazing. They inspired me to go into the Engineering field.

My experience at the Academy for Classical Education is a good experience. My school is helping me for college. The school academics is challenging but it has helped me become better academically and socially. It has helped me socially is when we do group activities and we do group science labs. You can also be social when you join clubs(which there are great clubs at our school) and athletics. The school has helped me academically by helping me with vocabulary and giving us work to help us for the future. Some negatives at my school is just the food. The food proportions are no big enough for upper classmen. Overall my school has helped me become a better person and has helped me find myself in my highschool life.

I appreciate the work the teachers put into their classes and the effort the administration puts in. Our college counselor is in awesome lady and the principles are supportive of my family and all of ours. I like how safe I feel in school. There is only one thing I would change and that is the food days because every week its same old same old. Although I cant speak for them I feel the students at my school will always have supportive teachers and as long as they do the right thing and be the best version of themselves will have the principles support in all that they do.

I wanted to love this school. The hype about this school had me so excited for my baby to have been accepted. If I could turn back time, my child would not have went here.

Too strict like military. No different than a public school. Just no busses. Either you are at the top or down in the pits. If you are a good average student, you are with the funkies.. If you are so called "gifted" you are treated like royalty.

I have two kids at ACE. The teachers are great, staff communicates well. We are staying in the area just for this school. Note, we can send our kids to any private school we would want, but we choose ACE. It is a hard school for sure, and we take it year by year, however I can just speak to the year...
