It has been amazing to watch our girls really come alive in their personalities and passions since they have been at ACS.”
Chris Kooienga (2024-2027) is a current parent of ACS students, with kids in 11th, 10th, and 6th grade.

He and his wife have two boys attending school here, in 4th and 5th grade. Scott is an electrical contractor with Fine Line Electric LLC. Scott says he loves Algoma because it “is a light in the world of education as it continues to keep God at the cornerstone of the foundation. Because of this my wife and I have confidence that our children are being taught in an environment that lines up with our belief in our Creator and Savior and that they are able to grow in knowledge based on truth. Along with this we have seen the growth in opportunities that ACS offers for solid education and development of well rounded young adults moving into the next part of their life. We are truly blessed to have the opportunity to have our children attend here.”
Danielle Mysliwiec (2024-2027) and her husband Joe are current ACS parents with students in 7th and 6th grade. While her day job is a Registered Nurse for Somatus, she is also a member of the ACS Spiritual Formation Committee and the Friday Morning Prayer Group. Danielle says, "we love ACS because it provides a high level of biblical and personalized education. They do this while maintaining the values, morals and ethics we live by in our own home. As a result, our children have a stronger, deeper, and richer biblical worldview. We feel ACS is an extension of our own home. The leadership, teachers and staff members are prayerful and diligent in supporting, growing, and maintaining the ACS we love.”
Mitch Taylor (2025-2028) and his wife Erica are the parents of four ACS students: classes of '25, '27, '29, & '31.
