Order A Start-Up Notebook


ACCS offers a Start-up Notebook filled with information about issues which face every group who desires to see a school in their area.  Written by the ACCS Board of Directors, all of the authors have either helped to start or operate classical Christian schools.

The notebook was extensively revised in 2005 and now includes a working school budget spreadsheet with free support from the writer.  We've seen comparable software available for purchase elsewhere as high as $1500.00! 

The budget alone is a tremendous value, but the notebook shipment now includes a DVD "Trivium Sketches" produced by Logos School.  (Additional copies are available from Logos for $20 plus shipping.)  Read some testimonials below.  We also include up-to-date information from various suppliers whose products and services may be of help to a start-up school.

Here's what folks are saying about Trivium Sketches:

From American Christian School, NJ
"Last week we had a teachers' workshop and the teachers viewed Trivium Sketches.  The response was a unanimous 'WOW!'"

"Trivium Sketches helped me look beyond the theory of classical education and into real classroom situations to see its application.!"

"After watching Trivium Sketches, my enthusiasm for the classical education approach skyrockted! Now I see the 'whole picture' and how wonderful these techniques are...both from a teacher's perspective and as a parent."

From Faith Christian Academy, MO
"The entire faculty viewed the Trivium Sketches DVD and found it delightful, informative, challenging, daunting and encouraging to us as we consider our vision for our classical School, and as we review the mission we believe that God has called us to.  Our intention is to show this DVD in other venues as we continue to move in a similar direction, looking for similar classroomresults.  The layout and sequence of the presentations is outstanding, and the professional quality is superior.  Thank you for producing such an effective tool for faculty, staff, administration - and eventually our parents."
