Homeschool Hybrid / Support Programs
Before we started Acton Academy we homeschooled our four children, so we love and appreciate the homeschool community.
Our innovative Homeschool Hybrid Program supports and bridges the gap between full-time school and homeschool environments.

3-4 Mornings
8:15 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
We will create an individualized badge plan for your child to work towards mastery of skills in reading, writing, math, and more. We will set up all of their programs for core skills and they will work in our learner-led environment alongside the rest of the heroes.
In addition, they will be part of the studio for our writers' workshop where we explore many different writing genres.
3-4 Afternoons
12:00 p.m. - 3:45 p.m.
Your child will join right in with our other learners for project-based Quests. Each 5-6 week session we have a different quest where learners explore a particular theme.
In our Adventure Studio (~ages 8-10) some examples include: coding & robotics, the story of energy, marine science, Edison's lab, entrepreneurship, chess, architecture, and more.
In our Middle School / Launchpad (~ages 11-18) some examples include: personal finance, biology, chemistry (done through cooking and building rockets), physics (done through creating levers, pulleys, etc.), civilization quests, entrepreneurship, and more.
This program follows the same application process as all of our other programs.
OUR PROMISES TO YOUR CHILD
Our Learner Driven Communities are run mostly by our students, where closely connected families of lifelong learners are bound by clear covenants. Where "Learning to Do" and "Learning to Be" are even more important than "Learning to Know".
