NO HOMEWORK
No busywork, no stress—just meaningful challenges that spark real curiosity and learning.
NO TEACHERS
Instead of traditional teachers, we have guides who challenge students to think critically, ask big questions, and take ownership of their learning.
NO GRADES
Progress is measured by mastery, not letter grades—ensuring your child deeply understands concepts instead of just memorizing for a test.
LEARNER-DRIVEN
Students set their own goals, explore their interests, and develop the confidence to lead their own education.
SELF-PACED
Every child learns at their own speed, mastering skills deeply before moving forward.
REAL-LIFE
Why wait until adulthood to gain real-world experience? At Acton, kids tackle real challenges, launch businesses, and solve problems today.
PARENT TESTIMONIALS
"Our daughter loves learning at Acton. She can’t wait to share her day the moment she jumps into the car. I’m so grateful to see a love for learning come back into her eyes."
"I would never have believed children could learn so much from each other – until I saw it with my own eyes. The lessons of self management and self governance have prepared our fifth grade son to be a lifelong learner.”
"Eagles play hard and work hard. Our daughter jumped seven grade levels in Math in two years, but there wasn’t any magic to it; just encouragement from her friends and lots of hard work.”
