We do not dictate curriculum choices, assign grades, structure coursework, monitor student progress, or require work samples. We also do not require standardized testing for the issuance of grades-only for certain academic honors.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ACA Desires to help Cultivate Self-Governing Families.
