Need to know MORE about what Acton can do for your child?

At Acton Academy Charleston, learning studios replace the sequential grade levels from traditional K-12 schools. Each studio roughly correlates to a child’s age and academic achievement level. Without exception, all studios offer your child a mixed-age environment where internal motivators, such as self-directed learning quests, replace the external pressures of grades and standardized tests.
