I have 18 years of test results both on the ACT and the CAT as well as
results of those students who did go on to college. This discussion is
becoming redundant. I do not think that any educational program is the
panacea of academic success. The ACE program has worked well for our
church school for 18 years now and we have the results in hard evidence
to back it up. ACE headquarters has 25 years of evidence with over 7000
schools to back it up. I would imagine you can get it from them in a
report format. I don't need to as I see the students every day. I do
not think it is the best .. the best is what the Lord intended and that
is the parents training up their children ... HOMESCHOOL .... now you
have something else to go after. :)
