ACE has made some very positive changes in the past few years, but as an
educator, these have been some of my concerns too.  Great curriculum, but
with too little variety and flexibility.   I have always encouraged ACE
schools to try to supplement with other classes and activities.

Our school uses the Abeka program, and I feel that it is outstanding.
However, it does require a higher level of skill for the classroom teacher
than perhaps the ACE program does, which has a high degree of self-mastery.
