Our Approach:
1) Self-Directed Learning
Individualized learning for each student means students practice setting daily and long term goals and can learn at their own pace with support from their peers and teachers. This approach has Acton students learning on average 2.5 grade levels ahead of their peers from traditional schools with some graduating high school at the age of 16.
2) Mastery
Students at Acton Academy learn for mastering each subject- and not to just pass the class. This ensures a solid foundation for their future endeavors. Core skill mastery is demonstrated through achieving goals and 100% in each subject, earning badges, and showcasing portfolios at public exhibitions at the end of each session.
3) Character
Asking hard questions and taking risks through daily Socratic discussions and hands-on Quests turns clear thinking into decisions and habits that forge character and bring purpose into one's learning.
4) Community
Student-led projects, Socratic discussions, and wellness activities help children foster deeper relationships and new perspectives amongst supportive and engaged peers.
