At Acton Academy Alpharetta we believe every person that walks through our doors will find a calling and change the world!  We are a 4-day microschool with modern-day mixed-age studios, part of a global network of over 300 schools. We provide the latest interactive technology and project-based quests to support independent learning through mastery with high standards of excellence. This unique approach allows our learners to gain real life skills and develop a love for learning within our close-knit, like-minded community. Are you ready to re-imagine your child's education?

Learn to Learn

Socratic Discussions and self paced challenges equip children to be independent lifelong learners. 

Learn to Do

Our project-based, self-paced and collaborative learning environment and entrepreneurship quests prepare children for apprenticeships and real world challenges. 

Learn to Be

The Hero’s Journey, relational covenants and real world consequences transform difficult decisions into virtuous habits. 

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