DEEPER LEARNING

Since the beginning of the Christian education movement in our province (which began soon after WWII), educators have been discussing and implementing updated best practices that can BEST meet an individual schools’ mission and vision. The movement also started with the core underpinnings of a reformed worldview—our whole world belongs to God and He is sovereign over it all; there is no sacred and secular divide.

As recently as six years ago, the ACS Board made a visionary decision to create a Deeper Learning Fund to significantly advance Christian deeper learning at our school. With seed money from the province, that is matched by the annual budget, this Deeper Learning Fund still exists today. The projects shared in the following pages are a result of this fund—projects that were completed by students last school year.

We believe that Christian deeper learning, and the Deeper Learning Fund furthers our mission and vision in incredible ways, and we hope that by reading this annual report, you recognize this as well.
