Step 3: Apply!
After the tour, if Acton Academy Marietta feels like a good mutual fit, we will send your family an application.
The final admission steps include:
~ submitting the application
~ completing three Studio Visit Days (on-campus)
We recommend either reading Acton founder, Laura Sandefer's, book Courage to Grow or watch Laura's interview with Dad Saves America or Laura's Interview with Dr. Mom. Both the book and the podcasts/video cover why and how the Acton schools came to be as well as the nuts and bolts of what an Acton education is like.
