The MAACS Bible, Academics & Fine Arts Competition has been organized to provide a challenge toward excellence among the students of AACS schools, particularly those in the mid-America region. This competition will allow Christian young people to develop disciplined skills in various areas of proficiency so that they might better serve the Lord throughout their lives. Certainly a worthy goal of Christian education is to follow the example of our Savior who “. . . increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man” (Luke 2:52).
