achievement is diagnosed and placed at that academic subject level. The A. C. E.
curriculum which allows your child to achieve at his or her level without being in
competition with another student.

A CHRISTIAN ALTERNATIVE
THANK YOU for your interest in our LANDMARK CHRISTIAN HOME SCHOOL. You are
among the growing number of parents, nationally and worldwide, who are recognizing
the need for Christ-centered educational programs for their children. Many parents are
searching for an educational alternative which develops their child socially, morally, and
spiritually, .... as well as academically.
Whatever your reason, we at LANDMARK CHRISTIAN SCHOOL can provide you with an
individualized Christian value-based academic curriculum which has been proven
world-wide. It is in use in over 7000 schools, 100 countries, and more than 50,000
Home Schools.
We can begin your child's educational plan with diagnostic tests to determine his or her
academic levels of achievement in Math, English, Reading, and Spelling. From these
tests and records, an educational program will be prescribed to meet your child's
specific needs;rather than his or her chronological age or grade level.
The Administration believes that LANDMARK CHRISTIAN SCHOOL has been
established to assist Parents in their task of "training up the child in the way that he
should go."
LANDMARK CHRISTIAN SCHOOL is one of the more than 120 Category
IV Schools recognized by the State of Tennessee to provide Academic and Christian
education. We use the Accelerated Christian Education Program - A.C.E. and have
been operating since 1990. Contact us today by mail or phone to take more control
in educating your child in our Home-School program.

FEATURES OF A.C.E. CURRICULUM
Our K-12 CURRICULUM is written by Christian teachers and educators from a
Bible-based moral climate of absolutes. Parents with High School Diplomas or
G.E.D.'s can be involved in their children's learning, without needing to "prepare
daily lesson plans".
DIAGNOSTIC TESTING determines what ability level the student has actually
reached academically in each subject. This is where he should begin working
for successful progress.
SELF-INSTRUCTIONAL means the student can do most of the lessons
independently with a minimum of Teaching, and without the need for detailed
daily lesson plans.
SELF-PACED allows students at all different levels of ability and motivation to
make progress through the academic material at their own natural rate of
learning.
MASTERY LEARNING is a principle that a student is ready to learn skills and
concepts when he has mastered previous skills and concepts. An 80% minimum
score is required on each quiz and test to complete the unit.
LEARNER- BASED systems of learning put the emphasis upon what the student
is learning rather than upon what the teacher is teaching. The teacher is
responsible for supervision of progress, with a one-to-one, teacher-student
learning climate.
EVERY STUDENT CAN SUCCEED because the academic material is easily
adapted to the ability of most students, ...from the below average to those who
are gifted. All students are challenged.
