LOCAL FAMILY OPENS INNOVATIVE SCHOOL

School, As We Know It, Was Designed in 1892

Our school was born different. Acton Academy is one of the newest and most innovative (and downright coolest) school designs in the world. Each Acton school was founded by parents who believe there is a better way to educate their children and help other like-minded families in their community.

Collaborative Classrooms of Multi-Age Learners

Personalized Goals & Transparently Tracked Progress

Supported by Latest Technology & Cognitive Science

JOY + RIGOR = MASTERY

At Acton Academy we believe each child who enters our doors will find a calling that changes the world. Acton students are independent learners who find great joy in learning, in a tight knit community that upholds the highest standards of excellence.     

Embracing rigor is part of saying 'yes' to a Hero's Journey. Deep learning brings a special type of joy, but the mastery required for a Hero's Journey goes even further, requiring commitment, discipline and hard work towards a worthy goal.

"We crave a life that means something to this world. We crave being known for our uniqueness, not what others expect or hope us to be."

Laura Sandefer, co-founder of the first Acton Academy
