The ACSI Student Activities Program seeks to encourage and inspire students toward a standard of excellence in leadership, communication, and performance by enhancing the academic and fine arts education program of the Christian school. It provides opportunity for the practical application and development of skills necessary for confident Christian leadership.
Each activity is planned to impact the educational and spiritual growth of each student, encouraging them to be a testimony to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Each event also seeks to provide opportunity for Christian fellowship and positive interaction between students and teachers of participating schools.

New Event! Desktop Publishing Festival
The purpose of the ACSI Desktop Publishing Festival is to provide Christian School students with the opportunity to explore digital publishing that reflects the voice and vision of the student. Since this student event is for the expression of Christ honoring publications, they are expected to reflect the guidelines of Philippians 4:8..."whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy,think about such things".

The FCC Cheer Camps are sponsored and administrated by the
Fellowship of Christian Cheerleaders (FCC). Unlike many cheer camps, these events are designed to build team cheerleading skills while discipling athletes in their walk with Jesus Christ.
