What Other Acton Academy Parents Are Saying

"Acton Academy is a really unique and special place. There are no overstressed teachers consumed with classroom management. The children manage themselves by holding each other accountable. It is remarkable to see the growth, drive and determination the kids are capable of when we as parents get out of their way.”

— Anna

"The best decision we could have made to support our son's education. He is a gifted child who experienced a lot of anxiety in a conventional school setting. He looks forward to every single day. He completed two grade levels of curriculum in one year. More importantly though, he embraced a role as leader.”

— Kristine

“This school will be a key source of innovation for K-12 schooling. The design, leadership, facility, and philosophy are best in class. We are very grateful for the project-based learning approach at Acton Academy. Our children enjoy their peers and micro-school learning environment.”
