We've attended this school for preschool the last 2 years and now for Kindergarten. I couldn't say…read moreenough positive things about this school. This school is family to us. The teachers and staff truly love my kids. My girls excel and exceed in their learning. I love that everything they learn and do is oriented toward Christ. I'm impressed by their grasp of the Bible. They attend chapel every week. They've grown and become well-balanced little people. The school provides an excellent balance of everything you hope for in a school: academics, play, crafts, music, worship, activities, etc. there is always something fun going on. I know that my children are well-cared for here. I highly recommend!!

As a former public school teacher, my experiences lead our family to homeschool and then we found…read moreActon Academy. Both of our children have had so much growth this year. We've seen their leadership skills sharpened, critical thinking skills honed and how well they have been able to work collaboratively with their peers. The four C's of twenty-first Century skills are critical thinking, creativity, collaboration and communication. Acton helps to develop each of these skills in a developmentally appropriate way. I love how they allow our children to read their choice of books during drop everything and read time, allow plenty of outside recess and have quests where they work together to solve real world problems. During core skill time they work on reading, writing and arithmetic. Each of our kids have excelled by working at their own levels, setting goals and achieving them! One of our children is Dyslexic and Acton has been the perfect environment to allow him to work using his strengths while still working on individualized core skills. Our daughter loves "writer's workshop" where she gets to write to a real audience by writing letters, reviews and publish books. They learn History through Story of the World which is fascinating to our whole family. We also enjoyed the Acton Business Fair where children become entrepreneurs and get to sell their products to the community. So much learning happened during that project! Acton instills in children that they are "heroes" on their own journey and heroes face hard times and work to overcome them. Acton is changing the face of education and we are so blessed that we get to be a part of this community of young heroes!

DONT GO HERE. I used to work here and my son went here while I was working here. After knowing the…read morethings that I know about this place, I wouldn't even send my dog to this school. They need major improvement, especially in management. I don't see this business lasting long-term. A lot of the time they leave teachers out of ratio, which means there are too many kids per adult, and honestly I could name off a bunch of stuff, the list goes on. But I won't do that. Just know, you could get way more out of taking your kids somewhere else.

The staff is super friendly! My daughter was new to meeting kids and strangers (due to pandemic…read morerestrictions) and the staff really helped to get her acclimated to a new environment. Now she gets very excited to go to school in the morning - and I can always tell a difference when I pick her up that she's been learning and is very chatty.

School is very unique. Offering anything a child would possibly want. Great leadership.read more

Their classes fill up as soon as they are posted. I was irritated that my husband did better than I did. He isn't crafty at all and he caught on really fast.

WOW, what a cool place that's tucked away in a small neighborhood to let your pottery talents come…read morealive. I had such an amazing time last night learning how to create pottery. This was my very first time doing this, and instructor Tracee Ellis was absolutely OUTSTANDING!!!! She taught 8 of us, some first-timers, others had some experience, but she made getting messy a dream come true for me. I'm so glad my daughter in law gifted me this experience as a Christmas gift last year. The classes fill up super quick, but man, was this truly worth the wait!!!! Thank you, Yellow Door Ceramic Studio and Tracee Ellis, for an incredible way to end the work week and begin the weekend. #potteryrocks

Picture this: a lot full of trees of all shapes & sizes, incredibly helpful people that will chop down the tree of your choice, the smell of a bonfire by an old cabin, free cookies & hot chocolate to warm you up after you've selected that perfect tree, and all the funds go to a wonderful cause. Prices are really reasonable, too.

I love The Goddard School Fishers 2 location. My daughter has been attending since May 2015, and…read moreshe is excited to go to school everyday. She is only 2.5yo, but I've noticed a marked difference in her social and educational development. The teachers work very well with the students during lessons and playtime. Upon entering the school, staff is sure to acknowledge their young scholars first. I can tell this makes my daughter feel welcomed and safe. When my daughter misses a day, she is anxious to get back to her friends and school family. I actually feel guilty when I keep her home, because I know she will miss a worthwhile lesson. She has been in three different classrooms in 7 months, but only because the administrators insist on placing children in the classroom that best suits their development pace. In her first classroom, her teachers managed to get her about 85% potty-trained within her first week of school. We were amazed. Also, as a neat freak, I love that the school is kept tidy. I always notice upgrades to the facility and new toys. Lastly, at this location, many extracurricular activities are planned for the students and their families. We look forward to each one!
