An Acton Academy

Education reimagined for the 21st century.

Education is preparation for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

And, for today’s learners, what lies ahead is a future that is drastically different from the world we live in now. Learners today will be responsible for creating that future, and to be prepared for that task, how and what they learn must transform to meet those challenges. We’ve created Creator’s House to help learners find their calling and prepare them to thrive in a rapidly changing world. We do this by challenging them to take ownership in their learning and to put it into practice by solving complex real-world problems using critical thinking, creation, collaboration, and innovation.

Our Approach

Mixed Ages

Our studios are designed with an understanding that ability is not determined by age and that in an open environment, students naturally learn from other students with different interests, skills, and ability levels.

Projects with Purpose

Our students will focus on solving real-world problems and pressing issues that reflect the world around us.  These projects bring together multiple disciplines and engage students by allowing each to focus on areas of individual interest and ability.

Mastery Focused

At Creator’s House, our students have the opportunity to learn at their own pace, allowing them to excel quickly in areas of strength and take the time to learn thoroughly before moving on in others. This allows each student to continually be challenged by their work.

Learner-Driven

We believe that children are capable of far more than they are tasked with today. By challenging students to independently set and attain personal learning goals, with a long-term orientation, they gain ownership in their work and are able to realize their true potential.

The Hero’s Journey

Spend time in one of our Studios at Creator’s House and you’ll see the layering of many systems, but the secret sauce is simpler and comes from deep within: our firm belief that every person who walks through our doors is a hero in the making.

The Hero’s Journey is the founding narrative of Creator’s House – the “why” behind all the passion. Here, narrative and storyline mean everything.
