We believe each child who enters Acton Academy Folsom will find a calling that changes the world. Our Eagles are independent learners who find great joy in learning, in a tight knit community that upholds the highest standards of excellence.
At Acton Academy, we believe in fostering independent learning and empowering students to take charge of their education. Our innovative approach combines personalized learning, real-world experiences, and a strong emphasis on character development.
At Acton Academy, we focus on the following key features:
Self-paced Learning: Students have the freedom to learn at their own pace, allowing them to dive deeper into subjects that interest them and move quickly through material they have already mastered.
Socratic Method: We encourage critical thinking and intellectual curiosity through the Socratic method. Students engage in thought-provoking discussions, ask questions, and explore different perspectives to develop their reasoning skills.
Real-world Projects: Learning at Acton Academy Folsom goes beyond the classroom. Students work on hands-on, real-world projects that challenge them to apply their knowledge and skills in practical ways, fostering creativity, problem-solving, and collaboration.
Character Development: We believe in nurturing the whole child. Our program focuses not only on academic excellence but also on character development. We instill values such as integrity, responsibility, empathy, and perseverance to help students become ethical and compassionate leaders.
Mentorship: Our dedicated and passionate mentors guide students on their learning journey. They provide individualized support, coaching, and feedback to help students set and achieve their goals, discover their passions, and develop their talents.
Entrepreneurial Mindset: We cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset, encouraging students to think innovatively, take risks, and embrace failure as an opportunity for growth. We believe in equipping students with the skills and mindset necessary to navigate an ever-changing world.
Learning is hard. It requires grit and perseverance. Acton Academy Folsom focuses on developing the whole person – mind, heart, body and soul – because anything less is a failure to our children. We focus on learning to be, learning to do and learning to learn.
Acton Academy Folsom is a 10-months program consisting of 5-6 week quests with 1-3 weeks break in between, operating Monday-Thursday.
