WORKING HARD. HAVING FUN.
PREPARING TO CHANGE THE WORLD.
Our Middle School - High School Studio is for students ages 13-17 who have proven that they are able to work independently. The Adventure Studio builds upon the Elementary curriculum of badges, guides, journeys and begin to embark into the real world. They will have thrilling opportunities and responsibility that come with it, including internships/ apprenticeships, volunteer opportunities, and rights of passage like our annual camping trip. As young people grow into adolescence, their impact multiplies.
Students continue collaborating, building their character and friendships with their studio-mates who will challenge and support them through peer review of their work. This Studio ultimately brings students to a deeper understanding of their character, while they explore their natural talents and gifts to discover who they are and where they are headed. The Adventure Studio offers a higher level of freedom, as well as a safe place to test your limits, failing early, cheaply and often.

"Acton is a place where you learn how to learn and learn how to live. There will always be fallouts, and places where things just don’t go how you may have planned them to, but what’s important is the ability to brush it off and keep going."
