A.C.E. Student Convention is an integral part of students’ educational experience, designed on sound educational principles that complement and extend learning beyond PACE work. It supports a well-rounded curriculum by engaging areas of development not fully addressed in the classroom while providing opportunities for teamwork, social interaction, and peer networking. Convention also offers an external assessment of student work within a structured and supportive environment. As a residential event, it enables students to discover, develop, and dedicate their God-given gifts and abilities to God while participating in healthy competition within a Christ-centered context.

The Student Convention is open to students ages 11–19. The school provides guidelines for each competition, and participants receive advance information and guidance for preparation and registration.
