Is Acton Academy Redding the Right Fit for My Family?
Acton Academy Redding is a perfect fit for families like the following:
- People who believe the traditional school system no longer works to prepare children for the modern world
- Entrepreneurs
- Creators and creatives
- Out-of-the box thinkers
- People who want the benefits of child-directed learning without having to make a full-time commitment to homeschooling
- Families with flexible schedules
- People who need flexible attendance for travel and family obligations. (We will operate on a 9-10 month calendar with 4-7 week sessions and breaks in between)
- Children who want additional time to pursue their passions beyond traditional after school hours
- People who want to maximize their family time
- Trailblazers and trendsetters
- Families who value their freedom and want their children to develop a love of learning
Parents looking for the items listed below may be challenged by Acton Academy Redding's philosophy and may feel it is not the right place for their family:
- Those who treasure social prestige and really prefer a traditional education.
- Those who are "blamers" and ultimately will gossip and criticize, no matter what.
- Those who aren't sure their child is ready yet for the responsibility and struggles—and occasional tears—of truly independent learning (and may be right).
- Those who are not committed to a Hero's Journey themselves.
