Acton Academy is global affiliate network of nearly 300+ locations in the United States and in 30+ countries. Acton's philosophy is based on a nontraditional, learner-driven approach that believes every child is a genius who deserves to find a calling that will change the world. We invite you to learn more for yourself on our Youtube Playlist.
We respect and incorporate Maria Montessori’s philosophy, but we are not a Montessori school. In addition to Montessori methods, we use the latest interactive technologies, hands on projects and the Socratic Method for discussions.
We currently serve children ages 4 to 11. We do not have grade levels, instead, we have mixed-age groups. We believe that children learn best when working with children younger and older than themselves rather than split up into groups based solely on age. In addition to individualized curriculum, all ages of students work together in groups.
The total (in-full) amount comes to $8,300USD (15,000 nafl). We offer sibling discounts and payment plans. Rates are flat and will not increase as a young person gets older. Please download our Tuition Fees.
We operate on an eleven month calendar, but our flexible program allows families to travel together during the year, without sacrificing any learning. Our school year goes from August to June. Download our 2024-2025 school calendar.
At this time we are only opening the Elementary Studio for ages 4-11. In the coming years, we will grow organically into a Middle school and High school that serves children and teenagers ages 4 to 18.
Yes, we are accredited through the International Association of Learner Driven Schools (IALDS). We are recognized by the government of Curaçao as a private school.
We have had multiple families approved for tuition reimbursement with the Dutch Ministry of Defense. Please connect with us to explore your particular situation and next steps.
Our Academy hours are Monday-Thursday from 8:30am-2:30pm and Friday from 8:30am - 1pm. Dropoff is between 8:00am-8:30am. To provide the highest level of service and standards in our first year, we will not offer after-school care in 2024/25. We intend to offer after-care in the near future.
We are not trained to serve children with serious learning disabilities but have been able to serve young people that are able to work independently.
We know you likely have many questions for us. Please email Tracey Howard, Head of School, to ask your questions and to request a 1:1 exploration meeting to learn more: tracey@actoncuracao.com
