History

Atlantic Christian School was founded in 1971 and first held classes in the Parish House of St. John's By the Sea in Ventnor City, New Jersey. For 33 years, the school operated out of leased facilities-in seven different churches and two public school buildings.

Atlantic Christian School opened a permanent school facility on a 37-acre (150,000 m2) campus in Egg Harbor Township in January 2004. A 68,000-square-foot (6,300 m2), two-story building provides classroom space, as well as a library/media center, computer and science labs, art and music rooms, a gymnasium, and a multi-purpose auditorium. Outdoor facilities include playgrounds and athletic fields for intramural and inter-scholastic soccer, baseball, softball, and track.

Atlantic Christian School is an interdenominational, independent school and is governed by a Board of Directors elected by the Atlantic Christian School Association. Over 100 churches are represented in the student body.

School Organization*
Atlantic Christian School is owned and operated by the Atlantic Christian School Association. The Association is composed of Christians from many denominations who are school parents, faculty, staff, and community supporters and believe in the mission and ministry of the school. All Association members must agree with the school's Statement of Faith.

A Board of Directors, elected by the Association at its annual May meeting, determines the policies, procedures, and regulations for the operation and administration of the school. The Board also assists in raising funds for the school and monitors the performance of the school's administration. Board members come from a cross-section of disciplines and denominations. The term of service is three years. Board members may be re-elected for additional terms, not to exceed three consecutive terms.

Each board member has been a member of the ACS Association for at least one year. Board members or members of their immediate family may not hold a position as a paid staff member or administrator.

The Parent Teacher Fellowship (PTF) is a very active organization in the school. The PTF brings together parents and teachers for a common purpose - to advance the welfare of the children and the school. The PTF sponsors social events to promote Christian fellowship, organizes fund-raisers to support specific school projects, and provides parents with opportunities to be involved in various volunteer activities.
