The Academy of Christian Education is a wonderful school. My children went to the school for over a decade from Junior Kindergarten to 8th grade. Every academic year, they grew spiritually, academically, and socially. My son especially had major problems in reading and writing in his earlier years, but today as a high schooler, is constantly praised by his teachers for being a good essay writer and analytical reader. The skills my children learnt at ACE are helping them to this day. They have gone to other school as well after leaving ACE, but they always talk about their pleasant times at ACE and how they were treated like family by the school faculty. The teachers are a joy. They always make sure that their students are emotionally and academically okay. Students who attend ACE in elementary and middle school are well prepared for higher levels of education, including high school, and even college. One of my best decisions to this day regarding my children has been making the decision to send them to ACE.

I was a former teacher at ACE. Sorry to say they only care about making sure parents who they see as paying customers are happy and continue to give the school money. If any parent paying customer complains to leadership and even threatens them to pull their kids out the school leadership will do whatever the parent asks. This includes changing grades a child or parent thinks is unfair to a higher grade when the child simply didn't score high enough. They don't care about how this is unfair to other parents and children who study all night and on weekends to get good grades. The school just wants your money.

ACE is focused on the students and what is in their best interest. The teachers consider how they learn, how to bring the children up to standards, and in most cases how to accelerate their learning. The school is taking the highest precautions due to Covid-19 and the health of the children. Thank you to all the ACE staff!

As a parent, I was born and bought up in India and completed my education in India. My first language or I can say my mother tongue was not English, initially it made us very difficult to understand the curriculum or academics teach in U.S, as a parent I was worried to pick a right school for my daughter. Thank God, for helping me to pick ACE for my Daughter for her education. I have enrolled my daughter in Jr K at ACE and never regretted our decision till date. Our experience has been incredible. The personalized care for my daughter and outstanding educational program has been a huge blessing for our family. Paired with the advanced educational emphasis. ACE institutes early discipline combined with accelerated academics. Sometimes it makes me very difficult to understand the curriculum, especially with Spanish classes. But great teachers, friendly staff, help my daughter with her homework in after day care. Teachers are very caring and affectionate, especially with my daughterÂ’s sixth grade teachers, Ms. DeGroot and Mrs. Adili, great teachers, my daughter tells me she is having a great time in class with her teachers. The front desk ladies Mrs. Berzonsky and others are Awesome! And very helpful, anytime in the day if I call, they guide us with right answers. If I plan for my second kid no worries at all ACE is always there for Pre-schoolers too. Mrs. Rogers and Mr. Rogers are the Best and Friendly staff, no words to describe about their nature. The school provides an excellent learning environment for kids. The teachers are outstanding. The students grow up with a lot of self-confidence and good behavior. We absolutely love it and highly recommend it!

I have been very impressed with the principle. She holds everyone, children and staff to a high standard but through a compassionate lens.
Posted: April 18, 2019
The teachers really go the extra mile to work with the kids where they are at. They are challenged but not stressed.
Posted: April 18, 2019
They take this very seriously and this plays into their character building philosophy. They donÂ’t just look to protect the child that may be bullied but they work with the child who is the bully to correct the behavior and understand what is behind it.
Posted: April 18, 2019
Every interaction with the teaching staff has been wonderful. They are engaged and truly care about the children not just academically but emotionally as well.
Posted: April 18, 2019
This is where I think ACE shines. Many schools are academically strong and pay lip service to character building but ACE exemplifies that in every aspect of the day and through every interaction. I have seen my kids blossom with this model.
Posted: April 18, 2019
I couldnÂ’t be happier. We feel truly blessed to have found this school. My children are thriving and I would recommend anyone looking for a quality private education to look at ACE.
Posted: April 18, 2019
My children are learning the discipline of homework without being overwhelmed or stressed.

A Hidden Gem in Reston, VA!!!!
My children (age 8 and 6) have been attending the Academy of Christian Education for almost 5 years now. We couldn't be happier with the significant changes we've seen in both of our children. You will not find another school in the Northern Virginia area that dedicates every ounce of its being to serving your children and family. From the moment you walk through the door at ACE, Mrs. Butler makes you feel as if you've been part of the family for ages! The staff at ACE are committed to providing a loving, supportive, and academically-enriched environment to our children. Through the years, our family has built lasting relationships with teachers and staff at ACE. There is also a strong community with other families - something that is invaluable for raising children in this area! ACE has provided an exceptional academic and social foundation for my children. Do yourself a favor and sign up for a tour today!

On March 22, 2018 ACE decided to close again copying Fairfax County schools closure. It is 45F on 3/22 and no reason for them to close when all the students are dropped in cars. None of the students are walking on icy roads, or are taking a bus which is why Fairfax County closes schools. It is extremely inconvenient to parents who have to go in for work as none of the offices are closed a day after the snow is over. Also, ACE only opines Fairfax County when it is convenient for them. Fairfax opened schools on August 28, 2017 whereas ACE first day was on Sep 5, 2017. Fairfax closes school on June 15, 2018 while ACE last day of school is June 8. So even though ACE says that it copies Fairfax County calendar, it does not follow it fully. They are open 2 weeks less than the public schools. On top of that they charge high fees and are ready to close schools at drop of a hat. No reason absolutely for them to close school when everything else is open. My only hope is that ACE management should evaluate their policies closely to see what makes sense. There was no forecast of snow on 3/22 and they should have used common sense and kept the schools open looking at the nigh fees that they charge, they should be more reasonable. Reston Montessori for example, a competitor school in the same city was open on 3/22. That is what is called common sense.

My son has been here for the past two years and I'm extremely happy with the school in all areas. Excellent staff, great curriculum, very well organized, highly disciplined. Learning and nurturing the kids characters goes parallel and all teachers do an awesome job with that. They were always responsive to all questions and that made me very comfortable.
I see tremendous growth in my son overall development and I'm very happy that I made the right decision. We love ACE.

We love ACE. Some of the things we love about ACE are the accelerated curriculum (1yr ahead), the structure, the kind faculty and staff and the extremely committed teachers. Also, my son has so much fun at school! He is in his first year of preschool. It's full time preschool. But, the teachers are so supportive. They help tremendously with the transition from home to school.

I can't say enough good things about the Academy. The teachers, the staff, the curriculum, even the playground are all in line to provide a safe, caring, nurturing, and challenging environment for our daughter. They communicate with us and make us part of the learning as we watch our little girl build confidence throughout the year.

Posted: February 27, 2017
My daughter has gone to ACE starting in September 2016. Of the schools I toured ACE has the cleanest facility. The teachers are loving and my daughter is always excited to run into the school in the morning.
If you are looking for an accelerated school you owe it to yourself to take a tour. If you don't think this school is different ask to have a four or five year old read you a story. The class sizes are all small and every student gets individual attention.

Home work comes daily and kid finishes it every night which keep the learning going
Posted: February 27, 2017
My son is in ACE for last 6 years. This is best thing happened to him. His maths skills and reading skills are middle school level though he is in elementary . The daily home work , quizzes and tests make the learning subtle. Teaches are best and front desk staff is awesome ....we truly love ACE.

ACE has been a great find. We enrolled our son at ACE for pre-school and have loved the experience since then. ACE has the best education in the area. The education at ACE provides a good academic foundation for the future. Besides this the kids learn discipline and develop good social skills. We would highly recommend ACE.

My daughter has been with ACE for more than a year now and she loves it. The whole environment is warm and welcoming. All teachers and stuff there are super nice. The school offers accelerated academic programs that my daughter enjoys her learning everyday. She also loves those specialty classes especially the technology class, she always tells me what project they did at school and sounds very fun.
Posted: February 24, 2017
Our daughters have been going to ACE for three years. They LOVE their teachers!!! The curriculum is a grade ahead in all subjects and your child can take advanced math. My youngest said she was happy to learn cursive writing in Jr K! My oldest said that Bible and Science are her favorite subjects. Plus she loves the new Science Lab! The kids have also enjoyed many club activities- Minecraft Club, Lego Club, Odyssey of the Mind-to name a few. Thank you ACE!

Academy of Christian Education (ACE) is truly a great school! When we did our initial tour with ACE, the process was very thorough and the staff demonstrated their commitment to ensuring all of our questions were answered. The constant communication, high degree of organization, flexibility and academic rigor make ACE the best place. The emphasis on community and successful parenting are also very valuable. When you are seeking high quality care and education for your child(ren), go to ACE!

My daughter is in senior Kindergarten and has been with ACE for 5 months I cannot believe the improvement in her academics and social development. My daughter loves to go to school and she cannot wait to go the aftercare clubs.
As a parent I love the warm and welcoming environment and I feel that we are part of the ACE family.
The teachers are dedicated and genuine towards kids.
I have been to other private schools but this school is AWESOME it has the perfect learning environment for my child.
ItÂ’s truly a hidden gem.

More importantly I feel that he is also learning how to be a respectful and caring person. Highly recommend this school.
Posted: February 21, 2017
This is my younger son's second year in ACE and he is enjoying it. My older son attended ACE back in 2008-2010, he enjoyed this school very much. He would come home each day and tell me the fun projects he did or was working on. Now, my younger son also greatly enjoys this school as much as my older son did. He loves the school because of the fun projects, which he enjoys working on, the interesting books, which he likes to read, and the many hands-on activities that they have in the school. As a parent, I would certainly recommend this school to any other parent choosing a school for their child. The purpose of a school is to educate its students well, while making it an enjoyable experience. ACE does that really well.

My daughter, Olivia Luan, had 3-year experience in Kindergarten when she was in China, and also has nearly 1-year time in GBS in Reston. She went to this school for SK on March of 2016 and plan to enroll K-1 after the summer vacation. She likes the school from the first day she came, and often called it as "studying haven" comparing with those in her hometown.
She has no much training in English, especially in reading aspect. However, under the extensive helping from the staffs there, she successfully enrolled in K-1. She always tell ACE to other friends (sons or daughters of my friends) that it is the best school she ever attended.
Posted: February 15, 2017
My daughters have been at ACE for 3 years. It is an overwhelming blessing to send them to a school where they are not only encouraged and challenged academically, but mainly, they are deeply cared about by each and every staff member. They are exposed to art, technology, music, Spanish, and field trips. Each student is treated with care and respect, and they are taught to likewise treat others with care and respect. It is a joy to send my children to a place where they are safe and loved - with the added bonus that the academics are stellar. It is a great joy to have your 4 year old read you a book, tell time, and write in cursive.

ACE is AMAZING! My 2 kids LOVE going to school each day! The entire team (teachers and administration staff) are LOVING, CARING and EXCITED about what they do each day! My son has asthma and allergies...whenever he has been sick I have walked in to pick him to find that a team member is caring from him just as I would. #Priceless
Another awesome thing is that they have Kiss & Ride - they open the doors for your children to get out each morning and then open the doors again at pick up for them to get in your car!
I love the convenience especially when it is cold and rainy :)
My kids have learned how to read at age 4 and their skills continue to expand! I love that ACE encourages parents to be active participants in their child's education. The school also does a lot of cultural and enrichment activities throughout the year!
My husband and I have also had wonderful opportunities to connect with other families whose kids attend ACE and they have become lifelong friends!
Baby #3 will be attending ACE as well!

We have 3 kids and tried many different schools and finally got it right with the 3rd one. It was quite the experience looking for a school that meets all our requirements. We wanted a place where our kids will have fun, feel cared for and establish a strong academic foundation. Kids absorb and learn quickly at a young age and we wanted to make sure they develop fundamentals which they can build on. I was very impressed with ACE's approach to teaching and was able to see progress within a few months. My child comes home happy and enjoys doing her homework at a very young age. Everyone from the staff to the teachers are very friendly and extremely helpful. They are very attentive to our needs and requests. The kids have a great time at school with all the different activities they are exposed to. I highly recommend ACE to other families. Our experience has been amazing. #academyofchristianeducation #myschoolace #aceacademy

Our daughter Ava has been attending ACE since senior-K. From reading comprehension and math to history, science, art, and technology, our daughter is gaining a well-rounded and challenging education. We are very happy with the student-teacher ratio and the school's administrators. But what we love about ACE is the implicit partnership we have in raising our daughter. Everyone is easily accessible and genuinely concerned for the proper growth and education of the children. And with the kids learning at a grade level ahead of other schools, they will have a leg up on others as they continue through school. #myschoolace

This is the best school we could possibly send our kids to. The teachers are extremely loving and caring, academics wise, the kids are well ahead of any schools (public or private) in Northern VA, the fees isn't exorbitant. Overall, if you are looking for a school which truly cares for you child, this is the place to enroll your kind. Our family considers ACE as the best choice we made with respect to our kids' education.

We love ACE! ACE has done wonders for both my son and daughter. We love the dedicated teachers, small student teacher ratio, curriculum it follows and loving/caring administrators. If you believe in building a strong foundation, then this is the place to go. You will love be amazed when your child starts reading at 3/4 :) #aceacademy #myschoolace

Love this school---ACE! It has safe loving classrooms and recess spaces. My daughter had more academic challenges. She has been at ACE for more than one year now and she can't wait to go to school every morning. Teachers and staffs are filled with love and patience, they made my daughter thrived in a beautiful way. She is only in SK and she was explaining to me about the globe, arts and the difference between the Native Americans and the settlers. Also, she shared with us about many Bible verses and stories. She has math, reading and science everyday. It is perfect!

ACE is an amazing school and 5 stars doesn't even come close to its true rating! My son Ryan has been with the school for 4 years and our experience has been consistently outstanding across the spectrum - the academics are challenging and the students thrive (check out their international and regional awards!), the teachers and staff are 100% focused on the development of the entire student (character, leadership, confidence both academically and socially, respect for self and others, choices and consequences), my son looks forward to each and every day and comes home full of news and wonderful experiences to share, and the moment you step into the school you feel like you're part of a family where everyone truly cares about you and your child......a gem of a school that only shines more brightly each day we're there!

I was lucky enough to have my daughter at ACE when they began their 2 1/2 year old program. My daughter came home happy everyday bursting with excitement about what she had learned that day. She is enrolled in the Pre-K program now and I am still just as amazed at the progress I see each day. You cannot find more caring or loving teachers anywhere. Smiles, high fives, hugs, and high energy are all always seen at the school. ACE fosters a challenging and exciting learning environment and helps to instill key values and character traits that we as parents find important for our daughter.

My both sonÂ’s go to ACE. My Elder one is attending ACE from past 6 years and younger one is from 3 years. We are very happy with Teachers and School. Both of our kids love ACE and we are very proud of them. We have seen lot of progress academically and they are ahead in curriculum and academically challenging. We like the commitment that each teacher shows to our kids especially the third grade teacher Mrs. Spainhour and my younger one loveÂ’s Mrs. Francis. We truly believe this is an excellent school in the area and highly recommend this school to any parent looking for their child's academic success. The school has been a blessing.

This is an excellent school which is truly child centered. They value each child as an individual and cater to their own needs. The school is a happy place and has a warm welcoming environment. I have never seen such a caring school. My son is going to ACE school since 4 years. Great curriculum, great staff, and I feel very much safe and comfortable while my son is in this school. I proudly say that my sons cursive writing is awesome only because of the teachers efforts on encouraging the writing skills. We are very much happy that ACE is introduced 4th grade this year. School encourages district level competitions. WE are thankful to the teachers and We highly recommend the ACE to the other parents.

I am proud of two sons. Elder one studied at ACE . He loved this school very much.
My younger also studying here now. He doesnÂ’t want to go to any other school.
We like this school very much because of this curriculam, teachers , staff and afterschool programs. We are thankful for this school and highly recommending this school to other parents.

My child is performing at grade level higher. Reading, writing, adding, subtracting, and in other subject areas as well.
Posted: February 28, 2016
There's daily homework starting in Jr. Kindergarten, just enough to help them understand the importance of it. They also stress that each child is responsible for completing it and doing it cheerfulness. Parents are asked to confirm this each day.
Posted: February 28, 2016
They show how they put the children first everyday! They listen to the parents' feedback and shows genuine commitment in each child. They stress honesty, compassion, and fairness with each child and each teacher embodies this in the classroom by the way they interact with the children and the parents.

I enrolled my son in preschool at ACE a few years ago after having a bad experience at a neighborhood preschool program, and I am so glad that I did. The teachers and staff at ACE are the best that I've seen. I love their teaching philosophy and methods. I see evidence of how much they love teaching children. My son is now in senior Kindergarten, and he is reading, writing in cursive, able to add, subtract, and able to read time. And lastly, the tuition is a lot more affordable than other private schools of the same caliber. If you are looking for a school that will mentally stimulate your child and teaches children to be respectful and compassionate, you need to put ACE on the top of your list.

My daughter & Son have been attending ACE for 3 years now. We have been very happy with the school and the teachers. Both our kids love the school and always come home happily. I've seen a lot of progress academically in my kids and they are very much disciplined. The curriculum is effective and academically challenging. With the phonics and reading skills they teach put my kids ahead of 1st grade reading level when they finished the Kindergarten class. I find the teachers and the staff very accommodating. I would highly recommend this school!

Our elder daughter started JK at ACE. We made that decision based on three factors: ACE is well known in providing well-around education with emphasis on academic; our best friend sent her child here and recommended to us; my daughter loved this school after we had a tour. It turns out that this is one of the best decisions that we have ever made. All ACE staff are very professional and caring. They all have good natural aptitudes to kids. My elder daughter has been enjoying all her school time in JK, SK, G1, Camps and Clubs, and has been making great progress on reading, math, penmanship, and etc. Our younger daughter is one year and a half now. We canÂ’t wait for her to join ACE. However, she has to wait for one more year due to the minimum age requirement. ThatÂ’s the only thing we donÂ’t like ACE.

We are proud parents of two girls. My older daughter attended the Academy of Christian Education for 5 years and finished well in 4th grade. ACE has an accelerated curriculum, very loving teachers, staff, and administration. They gave her a strong academic foundation along with strong biblical values. Because of this foundation, she is now excelling in all her honors classes in public school. My younger daughter who started in preschool at ACE is now in third grade. She enjoys all her specialty classes, for example: Computer, Spanish, PE, Art and Music. When you walk in to ACE you feel that you are in the right place. The facility is clean, the classrooms are well organized and the teachers are very caring. In Northern Virginia I can assure you that you will not find another school like ACE. I am truly blessed to call ACE home!

The Academy of Christian Education (ACE) is a great place for kids to get a great head start with a strong foundation on readings, math, science and social knowledge. Due to our family reason, our son had to change schools a couple of times in 2 years in the Northern Virginia region. That was a painful experience for him and for us until we found ACE. In summer of 2015, we let him have a trial in ACE’s summer camp. We could immediately tell the difference of this school and my son instantly fell in love with the learning atmosphere. He came back and told us, “I love everything there.”(He was only 5 then). So we decided to transfer him to ACE for the following regular school seasons. So far, he is having the happiest school time and gaining fruitfully.
The school buildings are not the newest, but the facilities inside are superb. All the classrooms have smart boards and the students have computer classes and learn to use information technology. Most importantly, the teachers and staff at ACE are the BEST! We immediately felt their professionalism and enthusiasm in giving the best education to all the students. Every kid gets a lot of love and attentions. The school leadership continue a 20-year tradition in their core education philosophy. They care about kidsÂ’ comprehensive development and learning capability in academic, integrity and responsibility. As parents, there is nothing happier to see our kid coming back home with big similes and telling us how much he learned and played for a fulfill day. He is not just learning literacy and math every day, but also getting a passion for learning and becoming more mature in making friends and dealing with challenges. We are so grateful that my son has the opportunity to stay with such an amazing school. We've already decided to choose ACE again and will send our younger daughter to ACE as soon as she turns to the school age.

My daughter has been going to the school for the past 4 1/2 years and loves the school. The teachers are very good and teach advanced math, science and other subjects. They also teach very good behavior for kids. She was very well prepared to take the tests needed for AAP program in fairfax county.
Posted: February 23, 2016
This has been our first year for my daughter in SK and I can assure you that ACE is the school you would want your kid to be in.
1. All teachers and staffs are happy. Always caring and interested in how my kid is doing at school.
2. Teachers and staffs respond immediately to any questions addressed. No miscommunication between them. They are wise and smart.
3. Great curriculum and great choices of work book. Children here excels in all academic subjects.
4. Brings out the best work result of a child. They teach the kids to work hard and to be able to concentrate.
I strongly believe that in early childhood education, it is important to know about the child. What her weak points, strong points are. What she likes to do during free time, who she likes to play with. Not many schools provide that. My daughter's teachers even know what she has for lunch. They teach not only with their skills but also by caring and loving your child.

Only great things to say about ACE! I have two kids (Preschool and K) that attend. My eldest son started there 3 years ago and has blossomed into becoming a confident, smart and curious child. He learns great things everyday and comes back home with interesting and mind opening questions and comments. My second son followed this year and is learning about the great discipline offered by his caring teacher. Can't wait for my daughter to follow her brothers' footsteps! All the teachers and staff are very friendly, caring and warm, it is always a pleasure to interact with them. Highly recommend the school to everyone.

I knew when I was signing up my daughter for this school she was going to get a great education from all the reviews I had read about them. She's on her third year there now and the progress she's made from reading to math is exceptional... the other parents definitely didn't lie in that category about the school. What I honestly didn't expect was how much love and care she has received also. The Academy of Christian Education really invests themselves in each child... each family, and giving them more then just a great education. Overall though, I'm impressed by their orderliness and structure. I like that they do character building and teach the children about respect, which sometimes is lost in other schools. The biggest thing for me though, in the end... is that my daughter is happy and enjoys going there every school day.

We started our daughter in the full-day Toddler program (2 and a half year olds) this year and have been thrilled! It is a small class with lots of individualized attention, learning opportunities (colors, shapes, letters, etc.), and love. The teachers are EXCELLENT and it is clear that our child has developed both socially and intellectually as a result of the class. Most importantly, our daughter is excited to go to school everyday to play, learn, and have fun with her teachers (whom she adores) and her friends. We are very very glad we chose ACE!

Teachers are key to the success of this school. They spend time and are always very responsive via email or meet in person. We get weekly report on our 1st grader and daily progress of our toddler. They keep the parent in the know and partner with parents to ensure the education does not stop when kids get home or is finished with home work. Our 1st grade teacher even send useful article and suggested education games to us.
Posted: February 15, 2016
Home work does not take more than 20 minutes each day. In fact, teachers encourage if it is taking longer, do not push the student.
Posted: February 15, 2016
These are the core values at ACE. Every child is encouraged to treat others with respect and fairness. The teachers and parents believe in love and logic upbringing - they actually offer the class to parents too. We took it and it's done wonders for our girls at home.
Posted: February 15, 2016
My 6 year old has been going to ACE for 3 years now and I am so thankful they started toddler class for my 2 year old in September 2015. The school is an amazing environment where my girls are not just accelerating academically, but also growing up with the values that I cherish the most which are being humble, compassionate, respectful and caring. As a parent, I always keep an eye on various schools in the area and follow how other parents and students are responding to different programs. The staff, teachers, administration, after school and summer programs (including upcoming STEAM camps) at ACE are so geared to every and evolving needs of both students and parents. I have yet to come across comparable and affordable school like ACE. Needless to say, I highly recommend ACE. We are planning to keep our kids as ACE as long as we can. Simply put, if you want best education, best environment and best upbringing for your child outside of your home, come to ACE. BTW, their approach to Bible studies is so welcoming, unassuming and inclusive for non-Christian families like ours. The cultural celebrations at ACE represents the diversity in our community too. I am just thankful my girls are learning core values of being caring and loving individuals no matter what religion or culture they may chose to practice once they grow up.
Posted: February 14, 2016
ACE curriculum is very good. Students learn a lot of history, science and Spanish apart from English and Math. ACE encourages lot of reading too. For math they do 1 grade ahead if the kid is in regular math and 2 grades ahead if the kid is in advanced math. The teachers are also very friendly.

The school is very well organized, communication is great, and the teachers are encouraging, nurturing and loving. The academics are very strong. Our 7 year-old 2nd grader is in a 4th grade math curriculum working on long-division and fractions. Our oldest who has since graduated from ACE, still talks about ACE.

The personalized care for our children and outstanding educational program has been a huge blessing for our family. My Junior Kindergarten student could read simple words before her 4th birthday after her time in Preschool at ACE. Paired with the advanced educational emphasis, the biblical teaching and focus is a wonderful foundation for our children that we believe strongly will prepare them well for the rest of their lives. I cannot recommend ACE enough! We are truly thankful for this school - for the loving and competent staff and administration. The education and environment are exceptional and our children, starting even at age 2, are thriving from their time at ACE.

I attended ACE six years ago as a fifth grade student. Unfortunately, there was not enough enrollment for sixth grade and I returned back to public school. Overall, ACE taught me important strategies to become a better student. From then on, I was an honor roll student and was accepted into the honors program in high school. In December, I completed high school early with an advanced diploma. Now I am working at ACE as a teacher's aide (to help save for college) and I am happy to be back at my "home away from home." ACE not only taught me how to learn, but also made me feel like I was part of their family. I was loved and encouraged, and they helped me become the confident and outgoing person I am today. Thank you ACE!

My older daughter went to ACE for kindergarten. She spent most of her first 5 years in China and knew little English, but one year in ACE made her to pass fairfax county ESOL screening and doing great in schools afterwards. She always thinks ACE as her favorite school. Now my younger daughter is in ACE too. She loves ACE and her teachers. From my two daughter's experience, I think ACE has excellent teachers, provides the best educations and has affordable tuition.
Posted: February 25, 2015
Choosing ACE has been the best decision we have made for our girls. Before coming to ACE, our twins were in an un-structured preschool, not wanting to go to school. During our school tour, we were most impressed with ACE's strong academic program as well as the loving and caring environment. However, we did have some doubts about how our girls would fare in an academically accelerated program like ACE? We transferred to JrK in the middle of the school year. ACE teachers and staff have made every effort to make them feel loved, secure, supported, and encouraged. Our twins have been very happy since attending ACE. Now in SrK, they both have made immense progress socially, emotionally, and academically. Now they miss school on non school days. ACE has also managed to make learning so much fun!
Posted: February 24, 2015
We transferred our daughter from a public school to ACE on the second day of this school year and we are glad that we made right decision. ACE is a very organized, efficient, academically excellent and caring private school. The carpool teachers unload kids and their backpacks from cars in the morning with smile. The front desk teachers greet kids with hugs and smiles when they step in the school. Class teachers are always smiling. Kids there start their every single school day with love, warmth and happiness. My daughter loves her class teacher so much because the teacher teaches students in a fun way. As parent, we love the school and its teachers. I specially like the weekly reports that are sent home on each Monday with all the papers of the quizzes /tests taken in the previous week along with the class teacher's comments on the cover sheet. By looking at these weekly report, you know exactly how your kid is doing in school academically, socially and behaviorally. Overall speaking, I will definitely recommend ACE.

I am a Parent of a Senior-K student. My daughter has been going to ACE Academy since Pre-School. I have seen her flourish and enhance her skills in past 3 years. This is an excellent school where the teachers and the administration take a very good care of kids.Their academic level is outstanding and the biblical education is amazing that helps them understand about God and his ways. I have always been impressed with the way they discipline kids using "Love and Logic" and have always encouraged parents to try the same. I am glad my child goes to ACE.

I am a parent of a preschool child and a 1st grader at ACE. The minute I walked into the school for my first tour, I knew this would be the perfect school for my boys. It was warm and pleasant. Both of my kids had to be transferred to ACE during the mid-school year, and as expected, they immediately felt home from their 1st day. All the teachers and staffs have been very caring and accommodating. I truly appreciate how they discipline kids with "love" and go extra miles to help kids progress. Plus the communication level that we have with teachers and staffs has been amazing. ACE certainly has the accelerated and academically challenging curriculum which my boys enjoy every aspect of. Their biblical education is wonderful that my kids start implementing the ideas in their lives. We truly believe we made the right decision and look forward to many years at ACE.

My daughter is in her second year at ACE. Over the past two years, we have seen tremendous improvement in her math and reading. We are grateful to have found a school with caring and friendly staff, accelerated academic curriculum and well-disciplined environment. She loves this school and all the staff. We truly believe this is an excellent school in the area and highly recommend this school to any parent looking for their child's academic success.

My first grader who is has been in ACE since kindergarten, is flourishing at ACE. The academics are excellent, the staff is top rate. They have honed in their teaching methodology. From an academics perspective, their focus on STEM and reading is immense, at the same time they balance it out with developing the child holistically. We are now gearing up to send our second child in pre-k. We LOVE ACE and would highly recommend it to any and all. We were lucky enough to be told about them, and I hope other parents will read this review and give it serious consideration.

I have an 8-yr old atending ACE starting SrK. He is in Grade 2 while I am sharing this and he cherishes each moment at school everyday.The school provides an overall development a child needs and the teachers are very caring, affectionate and knowledgable. I feel happy that there is always good fun and fodder fo these young inquisitve minds there. Its a time well spent . I am amazed at the variety of subjects/ topics that he is introduced to and my keen learner ensures he has good details to share at the dinner table with us. Overall, very happy with our experience there.

My son and daughter started ACE in Sr. K and are now 2nd graders. ACE has been a fabulous school for my children and I am so happy that we sent them there. The school provides a solid foundation of academics, yet celebrates creativity and diversity in a warm, loving and supportive environment. I continue to be amazed by the leadership and staff of the school. Their dedication to the highest standards of excellence is outstanding, yet they are always caring and going the extra mile on behalf of the children and families. I couldn't recommend ACE more highly for any family that wants to give their child the best start possible, academically and developmentally.

The first time I went to visit ACE was after I read some reviews online. Everyone at the school was very nice but I was not expecting such a structured environment, especially after visiting so many other schools in this area. At the time I went to see the 3yo class and the kids were so quite, I was a bit intimidated. One of my kids has so much energy, I thought to myself, how is she ever going to sit still, but we decided to give ACE a try. Two years later, I could not recommend ACE enough. We love this school! This school has such a strong heart and is academically advanced. My kids have been attending for 2 years now and I have seen them grow and flourish. At 4 years of age, their math consists of counting to 100, by 1's and 10's, and addition. They also have been reading books this year. Today we were at the library and i saw one of my girls pick out a book and read it to her twin sister. I could not even begin to explain how that made me feel. I have also seen their confidence grow and there character be molded. The teachers and administrative staff are such a blessing too. They really are like family and my girls love everyone there!

This school has over exceeded my expectations ! Be it curriculum, patience, response, encouragement, challenges, opportunity or attention to details, you have all under one roof called ACE. Right from the admin staff to the class teacher they all work with you making you feel like a part of one big family. My child's learning has amazingly improved ever since she joined this school. I wish they had grades beyond 3rd. Can't wait to enroll my second one too.
Posted: February 9, 2015
This is my daughter s second year in ACE. Over the year I ve seen tremendous improvement in her, from her reading skills to math. ACE has outstanding staff. It feels like a second home when you walk into the door. You are always greeted with a warm, sincere smile. Any questions/concerns are addressed right away.

Love Academy of Christian education. Getting my daughter enrolled here has been the best decision we could have made. She is in third grade and is doing maths and reading way above her grade level. The teachers, administration staff everyone has been a great support and help ,especially when we needed it the most. They are always there with a smile and provide a very warm and loving environment. The academics and extra curricular activities are also great here. My second one is also being instilled with joy for learning and she loves going to school everyday.

It's been a wonderful journey for me as a parent and my daughter completing 4 years at ACE. Excellent staff, strong foundation and more over ,a smile on my daughters face everyday , she is currently in 3 rd grade .My younger one is in jr. Kindergarten and will definitely continue her studying in Ace for more years . I would recommend Ace as the best school.

I'm a parent of 2 kids here. My girl has went since pre-k, and my son since SrK. So we tried it for a yr at GFE with my son, my husband's idea. :( I was miserable bc I knew what he was missing at ACE. He learned next to nothing in 2nd at GFE. He's now been back at ACE for 4 months & has learned so much! He has learned more at ACE than all last yr at GFE. My daughter now 5 1/2 can spell & read well, also she can add & sub. We are only 1/2 through her SrK yr. While we are applying to the best private schools. I still worry about them not being challenged enough. The staff are the best! My daughter is pretty much an easy student from all reports, but my son, though extremely smart, has attention issues, he's all boy, but Mr. Chung loves and appreciates his talents while using redirection when his attention goes off topic. All the teachers and staff are extremely warm, Mrs. Butler offers hugs in the morning when the kids walk in, and prayers for u if she knows you are having a personal problem. Excellent academics and extremely warm loving place. Only neg is they only go to 3rd.

We are the proud parents of a Sr. Kindergartner at the Academy of Christian Education. This is our son' second year at ACE and we can't begin to explain what a wonderful experience it has been. The staff and teachers have been outstanding and always go the extra mile to encourage the kids succeed. We would highly recommend ACE to any parents. The school has been a blessing.
Posted: February 10, 2014
This the third year our kids have been at ACE (currently Sr. K and 2nd grade) and the primary reason why we have stayed with ACE all this time is due to their strong accelerated academics. It lays the groundwork for the kids to grow and learn in an environment that is challenging and encourages their students to excel and grow, in a Christian based school.
Posted: February 10, 2014
I am a proud parent of a Jr. Kindergartner at the Academy of Christian Education and words can't explain how great of an experience my daughter is having. Not only is she loved by the staff and her peers, but she has learned to read, write, and complete addition problems. She is academically above her peers in the neighborhood and its all thanks to ACE and their amazing staff! I highly recommend this school where your child will not only learn, but is loved and encouraged to succeed like family.

I am parent of Sr-Kindergarten student. ACE has taught my child to read at an early age. The phonics foundation is good.
Posted: February 9, 2014
I am Olivia. I am almost 6 years old now. I have been with ACE for almost 2 years. I like the school very much. Every day at ACE is so much fun along with learning. I like the summer camp too, because specials is fun, we color, we plant things, and it's awesome.
Posted: February 4, 2014
Our son started Pre-K at ACE in 2012--currently in his Jr. K year. We could not be more pleased with the results of him attending this school. The combination of the curriculum and Christian foundation is excellent. The staff has always been communicative with us, and most importantly, caring to our son. We would (and do) recommend this school to everyone.

ACE is a great school that provides a great foundation for lifelong learning! The phonics program is second to none.The children learn to write cursive and they do a very good job - take a tour and see their work displayed on the class bulletin boards. My child has been at this school for 4yrs and loves it. They have excellent teachers and support staff. The school ensure that the children develop a great work ethic, discipline and moral values.
Posted: February 27, 2013
One of the best schools in the area. Both of my kids are attending ACE. It has very strong academic curriculum, friendly and supportive teachers and staffs. When my son transferred to ACE from a day-care, he learned so much and was able to read in 3 months. We were amazed how well he learned in just 3 months and from then on we believe our kids are in the excellent academic environment. Most importanly, my kids are excited about going to school everyday!
Posted: February 25, 2013
Very good school. They try to get the best out of the children. I do value the religeous foundation that they bring.
Posted: February 24, 2013
ACE offers a challenging, disciplined, yet very caring environment second to none. My 7 yr old is in her 5th year at ACE and my 6 yr old is in her third. They absolutely love the school and all of the faculty. I drop my girls off in the morning knowing they are in very good hands. Not attending church like I should, I take comfort in knowing that they are learning about Christ every day, as Bible is their very first subject in the mornings. I only wish that the school went up to higher grades, as I dread the day they outgrow it. I love you ACE.

Both our kids love ACE! My son, who is now in Jr. K, started reading at age 3 1/2 and loves his teachers (especially the computer teacher!). My daughter, who is in 1st Grade, is already on a 2nd Grade level from an academic standpoint . When we were looking for a school that will deliver a strong foundation for their early years, we looked at several schools and ACE was the one that met our criteria in the areas of learning, environment, and teachers that care and work with the parents towards a mutual success in the child's learning and abilities.
Posted: February 18, 2013
My son started there last year and absolutely LOVES it .Teachers are loving and caring . By end of his first week there he was super excited to go there every day. They have accelerated reading and math with different groups based on a child's level. They have science, manners , computers, logic, foreign language as well as a variety of camps (chess / Legos/ Odyssey of the mind to name a few) at kindergarten level . What more could I ask for ?
Posted: February 18, 2013
Our daughter started Pre-K, we were initially anxious if she would like the transition from a Day Care to a Full fledged school. The teachers and staff made her feel so comfortable and she started loving the school from day one. They not only have a good academic program, they also teach good moral science, etiquette, manners, all of which makes our child a well rounded person. The premise is extremely well maintained and they have a beautiful play area. Our daughter loves to play and its a good physical exercise for her. We continued her for Jr.K and hopefully will have her there for a longtime.

My daughter has been in ace for 5 years. She absolutely loves this school. It helped her get well prepared for AAP in public school. She loves every teacher, the principal, and admin staff. We truly believe this is an excellent school in this area.
Posted: February 13, 2013
I have both my kids going to ACE since Jr. K. The teacher and staff are exceptional and go out of their way to assist the students. They have an accelerated academic curriculum and are always finding ways to innovate themselves. In additional to academics, they have arts, music, spanish, computers and a variety of clubs to keep your kid engaged. 3rd graders get their on ipad for the year! They also put strong emphasis on discipline, manners and respect. I think the most important aspect of this school is that they listen to the parent and actually incorporate the feedback into the program. I would recommend this school to anyone who is looking for quality education for their kids.

My daughter Jolie Joins ACE from 4th Sep,2012 after her arrival at U.S.A from China. During the past half a year, my daughter quickly got great improvements in English, in reading with all the teachers kindly help. She knows nothing about English before, but now she can communicate with the teachers and the classmates without any trouble, and she also have a lot of new friends now. She loves this school, loves every teacher here. We truly believe this is an excellent school in this area.

Love this school! We have our son at ACE over the last 2 years and we could not be more impressed with the safe loving environment this school provides. My son has thrived at this school. The administrators and staff know every child's name and work hard to ensure they are having a good experience. The academics are outstanding and the children never feel pressured. We are truly amazed by what he is learning in such a gentle manner and would highly recommend this school. We have been very happy.
Posted: February 12, 2013
The love and care each teacher shows towards the children is incredible. This is a well disciplined, accelerated school with a fun, loving environment. I would definitely recommend ACE.
Posted: February 12, 2013
My first child started at ACE about 7 years ago and my second one is at ACE now. Accelerated academics, nice, clean and safe environment keeps us in this school for more than 7 years now. All the teachers are loving, caring and kids learn good study habits which they carry forward even after moving to another school. I would highly recommend this school to any parent looking for their child's academic success !

Accelerated academics, clean, safe, and orderly. Teaches a solid academic foundation with good study habits.

My son is a second grader. Coming from a public school the transition was difficult. But his teachers were great and patient. He is now way ahead of his pears compared to a public school. He can even write cursive. the staff and the principal are excellent. Always approachable. We are 100% happy with the school, no ifs or buts.
Posted: February 10, 2013
ACE is second to none. The staff are incredibly warm and committed to seeing our children thrive. The reading program is excellent. My youngest son started learning how to read in the Jr. K program when he was 4 and by the end of the school year, he was reading stories. Now at 5 in the Sr. K program, he is learning to read with expression, smoothness and for comprehension. My oldest son attended ACE and is excelling in the Advanced Academic Program in public school. I would definitely recommend ACE to parents who want a nurturing and academically advanced environment for their children.

ACE has great academic programs and extracurricular activities such as music, art, sports and computer. All staff and teachers are very friendly and politely. My son loves to go to school every morning.

ACE is an excellent private school that is affordable compared to other private schools. The environment is very clean and the whole staff is wonderful with the children. Kids are using iPad and Mac computers. Kids read at very young age and writing cursive from beginning. ACE has given my son the strong foundation that he needs so far and we are so satisfied with him being there.
Posted: February 10, 2013
My son is enrolled in Jr K at ACE and never regretted our decision till date. ACE institutes early discipline combined with accelerated academics. The best part is my son who is otherwise very shy looks forward to his day at ACE each morning. Teachers are very caring and affectionate.
Posted: February 10, 2013
Have both my children in this school. What I most liked about this school was the values that it incorporates with the academics. Not only are the teachers great who strive for success, but there is also teaching in core values of life.
Posted: February 10, 2013
My son has been with ACE for four years so far, and overall, we are very satisfied with ACE's academic programs, especially its reading curriculum. It helps build a solid reading capability for the young kids. Altogether, the kids in my son's class read 1,000+ chapter books during their first grade school year, which is really impressive. Most ACE teachers are also loving, supportive and approachable.

We strongly believe that he got a very good base and a good character from ACE, that reflects in his studies and behavior.Our younger son is in Jr.K now.He enjoys the school.. All the staffs are very caring, friendly, and well organized. After school activities are excellent.

ACE is a great school with loving, supportive teachers and accelerated academic study. My son learned so much from this school. We are especially happy with the strong phonics study, cursive writing, typing, excellent reading material and daily mathematics flash card practice. Choosing ACE is one of our best decisions and we strongly recommend this school to other parents.

ACE for EXCELLENCE! You can blindly leave your educational future of your child with ACE Teachers.They assess your child in each category and give accelerated coaching in the subject if found fit. Teachers are very kind and helpful and approachable any time. Curriculam is challenging and interesting and my child does not like to miss even a day of school. I would rate this school great and I am happy that my child is getting a strong base here for his future education. I wish GOOD LUCK for the entire ACE family.
