EMPOWER YOUR CHILD TO FULFILL THEIR DREAMS
At East Valley Acton Academy, we help our PreK-8 students create
their path to success by developing the fundamental world skills and
character traits that matter most.
IS YOUR CHILD'S EDUCATION SETTING THEM
UP FOR SUCCESS?
Young people need to learn the right things to help them fulfill their dreams. At East Valley Acton Academy, our mission is to empower PreK-12 students to live meaningful lives by providing an environment where they discover their unique strengths, learn real-world skills, and grow in good character. Children get one shot at their education, so they need to learn what matters most.
Learn By Doing
We believe students learn by doing. Whether it’s launching a startup business, creating a tidepool habitat, playing a musical instrument, painting a mosaic, or programming a robot, Acton students are building real-life skills in the classroom every day.
Students Take Ownership
Acton Academy is “student led.” This means young people take ownership of their education. Acton students learn to think independently, take responsibility and embrace challenge. They are being prepared to bring their own unique genius to the world.
Change The World
We encourage our students to develop personal virtues such as honesty, hard work, responsibility, kindness and empathy. Armed with purpose and good character, we believe our students will launch into adulthood prepared to find their calling and change the world.
Why We Started
A School
My name is Shari Miller, and we've tried traditional private schools, homeschool, and public schools, yet our children did not enjoy their learning environment. However, I feel strongly that school can be a place your child loves to go, and Acton is just that & more. In 2017 a friend shared with me the fantastic news that Acton Academy coming to our community & after the first two weeks of school at Acton our children's perspective of school went from "school is terrible" to" school is incredible! "
When life relocated us to Arizona, we knew Acton Academy was the path we wanted to pursue since our children love Acton life. So in 2019, we founded East Valley Acton Academy for our children and yours.
If you want to see our school, please book a tour. We look forward to meeting you!

THE RIGHT ENVIRONMENT FOR EVERY STAGE OF LEARNING
Learning is a journey, and each of our four Learning Communities provides an environment where our
learners can uncover their unique strengths, develop real-world skills, and grow their character.
