Courage to Grow: How Acton Academy Turns Learning Upside Down

I wish I went to an Alton school.
If I could wave my magic wand... I'd open a whole bunch of these schools so that today's kids would be so much better equipped and prepared to pursue more successful endeavors in their lives. The current school system is failing your children!

Great read for someone looking for an alternative education option
This book explains the foundation of Acton Academy very well. I hope to see one of the other sites in action someday. It does inspire me to start my own. I also liked that the book presented some of the challenges and not just a rosey picture of everything going smoothly.

And it is still just beginning.
