The Anniversaries of Evangelical Christian Schools in France
This year marks an important stage in the life and development of at least six Evangelical Christian Schools in France. It is ACSI’s custom to award the schools who celebrate their longevity with a commemorative “Anniversary Plaque” at our annual “Mathurin Cordier Conference” for Christian Schools and their teachers from France, Switzerland and Belgium.

We would like to stress that these schools are pioneers, not only by title, but because their founders have persevered without financial support from the state and little or nothing from most of their local churches.
If they have managed to remain open to this day, grow in experience and reputation, it is thanks to the perseverance and the tenacity of their founders: the Rozier, Rindel, Cecconello, Wolff, Gandoin, Mewton couples and their precious collaborators.
We congratulate them and encourage them to consolidate their experiences, explore new horizons, and, most importantly, to trust the Lord to lead them, in order to ensure their continued existence, as authentic Christ-centered educational institutions.
ACSI Europe Art Show Winners 2026
We would like to congratulate all the wonderful students who participated in our first ACSI Europe Art Show responding to the theme of "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.". We were very encouraged to receive over 60 art pieces from schools all across Europe — a remarkable debut for this new tradition.
Poetry Contest Winners 2026
Announcing our first ever ACSI Europe Poetry Contest winners... Students were invited to respond to the theme of "Oh how I love Your law" — drawn from Psalm 119:97 — expressing their faith in their own words, in their own language.
2026 school year in review - Thank You
As another school year comes to a close, we find ourselves pausing — as we should — to ask a question that matters more than any metric or milestone. What has God been doing through Christian schools in Europe this year?
The answer is larger than any one school, conference, country, or organization. It is a story told in classrooms and conference halls, in student testimonies and teacher conversations, in policy discussions at the European Parliament and around the graveside of a faithful servant.
Safeguarding the Human Person in the Time of Artificial Intelligence
There is a question running through every staffroom, every school board meeting, and every teacher's planning session right now, whether it is spoken aloud or not: What does faithfulness look like in the age of artificial intelligence?
