The Association of Classical Christian Schools (ACCS) is a membership, accreditation, and advocacy organization that was founded in 1993 by Doug Wilson to promote Classical Christian education.[1] [2] The association's website lists 475 member schools (as of 2023).[3] As of 2016, it had accredited about 200 schools.[1]
It also affiliates with colleges. Its Certified College program includes New Saint Andrews College (Moscow, ID), New College Franklin (Franklin, TN), and Bethlehem College & Seminary (Minneapolis, MN).[4]
The ACCS conducts Repairing the Ruins, an annual conference in June that draws between 1000 and 1300 classical educators annually. The ACCS's magazine, "The Classical Difference", is published three times a year and distributed to parents at associated schools.[5]
