About

Throughout its history, Asia-Pacific Accelerated Christian School has maintained a commitment to providing quality Christian education producing a high calibre of learning experience to its students. ACS contributes to the total learning of its students by providing facilities conducive to the development of physical, emotional, social, intellectual and spiritual faculties of its students. ACS was founded in April 1999. Its establishment was led by Dr. Gregory Scott Lyons, Senior Pastor of Community Baptist Church. Together with the team were Rev. Norberto Mostrales Jr., School Chaplain, Ms. Amelia H. Bicera, School Principal and Ms. Priscila H. Dickson, Teacher. These people were of broad humanity and deep love for the work of the Lord.

ACS started with only less than 20 students and 2 teachers. At present, the school has been doing several outreaches to provide free reading tutorials and workshops.

The school was founded not only to provide academic excellence but also to instill the spiritual value to the children. ACS purposes to reach out the spiritual aspect of the parents as well as the students. ACS lives up with the following goals:

These goals are actively exhibited to produce valuable godly leaders.

As the school flourished and the scope became larger, the required qualification set by the Department of Education became a struggle of the school. This is because ACS is using the ACE program as its curriculum. DepEd required the school to comply with the minimum requirements for its operation. In God’s provision and guidance, the requirements were submitted without compromising the ACE distinctive. At present, the elementary, pre-school, SpEd, and Junior High School departments have been recognized by the DepEd for its operation in compliance to the requirements preconditioned.

ACS continues to commit to collaborate with the community in instilling moral and spiritual values that will prepare the young generation in building a society of good future.
