Atlantic Christian School participates in the federal Department of Immigration’s Student Exchange Visitor Program. This approval allows a student with the appropriate visa to come to ACS for his or her elementary or secondary education. This arrangement is mutually beneficial, allowing the international student to experience American culture and society, and allowing our student body to benefit from an integrated, multicultural experience.
ACS works with several international student programs including 3W International, Connect Education, Ivy International, New Oasis, and STS Education. Past international students have hailed from a variety of countries including Bulgaria, Belgium, China, Germany, Italy, Jamaica, South Korea, Sweden, and Vietnam.
Working together, we are able to provide support and service to our international students. Once enrolled, ACS provides an active ELL (English Language Learners) Program to students in grades 9-12. Students may also be involved in extra-curricular outings and activities organized by their international student organization or the school.
