Step 1: Learn About Acton

​Interested? We encourage prospective families to get to know the Acton model before beginning the inquiry and admissions process. 

​Take your time in thoroughly reviewing our website to familiarize yourself with our learning environment.  Most families who have gone through our inquiry process have shared that a deep dive into Acton's resources was very beneficial in learning about the model and preparing them for next steps.
