Begin Your Family's Journey
Are you ready for an Acton Academy audition?
The audition process is designed to make sure that we are the right fit to serve the life-long learning needs for your child and your family.
This process requires a lot of time and dedication, and we thank you for even considering us. Families who thrive at Acton often share that they truly enjoyed the process, and we hope you do too.
1. Request a Tour.
To begin your family’s audition, request a tour. But before you do, make sure you have read through our About Us, Learning Model/Acton Method, Frequently Asked Questions, and Resources pages.
2. Complete Your Tour Open House Tour
If we feel your family is the right fit, we’ll reach out to you about scheduling a tour. The child/children you are interested in enrolling must attend. If both parents cannot make it to the tour, we will need to set up another time to meet the parent who was unable to attend.
This is a chance to make sure we get acquainted and get to know each other better.
3. Schedule a Follow-Up Call
If you are still interested and if we feel like you are a good fit, we will reach out to you about scheduling a 30-60 minute call. This is your opportunity to ask more questions about Acton, as well as for us to ask you questions about your family.
4. Schedule "Shadow Days"
Just like we believe in hands-on learning, we believe in “hands-on enrollment.” Your child or children will be allowed to attend for 1-5 days free to test if the model is right for them. You will drop them off as if they were enrolled, and they will have a buddy who helps them learn about our systems and processes.
In some cases, we may request that your child join a group of our learners for a play date to get a better idea of how they interact with others. The play date may be in addition to a Shadow Day or as a substitute.
5. Invitation to Join
If we believe our Acton would be a good fit for your family, we will invite you to join. Congratulations!
This process is not designed to be easy because the journey every family goes on when they attend Acton is not easy.
