1. ACSI Activities and Awards
Milpitas Christian School, an accredited member
of the Association of Christian Schools

schools to showcase the skills of our students.
Piano Festival – January 18, 2020 (Salinas, CA).
Each student memorizes an approved selection at his/her
own level of participation and performs before an
adjudicator. The festival is not a competition: each student
is judged against a standard of excellence and not in
comparison with other students.
Spelling Bee – January 25, 2020 (Alameda, CA).
