No pressure here, just a more personal way to handle admissions and get to know your young hero(es)!

After our intro call, if your curiosity is piqued, we invite you to dive deep into the materials on our website and read Courage to Grow to learn more about what makes Acton unique. From there, you will let us know if you'd like to schedule an in-person tour of Acton Academy Madison West. You are welcome to bring your child(ren).

3. APPLY AND OPTIONAL VISIT DAY

The application asks you to think deeply about your child and your family, and helps us get to know you and your hero(es) even better before you all start your Acton journey. After submitting their application, many families opt to schedule one or more visitor days for their children to experience day(s) in the life of Acton firsthand.

4. ADMISSIONS DECISION

Admission decisions are generally swift because we've spent time getting to know each other. Enrollment to our school is confirmed upon receipt of the signed enrollment documents and a $1,000 deposit, credited to your tuition.
