Jim found that ACS is one of the best schools anywhere to help get the greatest education in the best stewardship way, in both time and money. It also has the best staff and teachers anywhere as well! Jim is blessed with a wonderful family headed up by his special wife Denise, who is the biggest reason their 4 kids are successful in following the Lord’s leading. Beth, their oldest is mom to two awesome boys and runs a couple of businesses. Leanne and her husband, who met at Grove City College, are missionaries to Japan with their 5 precious kids. Jonathan, a Liberty University Aviation graduate flies United Express jets. Katie, the youngest is recently married and is finishing her Doctorate in Physical Therapy. The family has been involved in their church in NYC for over 40 years. Jim’s passion is Coaching students not only in Athletics, but in the game of life, where he helps them find God’s direction and then helps them get the education needed for His mission for them.

This is Kellie’s 5th year at American Christian School where she teaches a Writing Elective to the high school and serves on the administrative team as the Director of Technology.
