My name is Christine McClain. I am a Christian single homeschool mom that has successfully graduated three children. All I have remaining in my personal homeschool journey is my 16-year-old and that is the reason Academy of Christian Education was born. I just wanted a family to finish out his remaining school years. We have just completed our third year and are looking forward to our fourth year servicing K-8th grade. We meet two days a week at a church in Hollywood.
