About ACCS

History


ACCS grew out of the national response to a book published in 1991 entitled Recovering the Lost Tools of Learning by Douglas Wilson.  This book described the educational philosophy instituted by Logos School in Moscow, ID - the philosophy being an attempt to follow the pattern set down by Dorothy Sayers in her essay "The Lost Tools of Learning".  The overwhelming response to the publication of this book made it apparent that an association would have to be formed to handle all the requests for help and information.  The new association began to host national conferences, giving rise to even more interest, and has steadily grown.
