We believe that each child has a gift that can change the world in a profound way.
We do. We believe there is a hero in every child. A hero doesn’t quit when it gets hard, takes responsibility rather than making excuses and solves problems to make the world better.
We believe clear thinking leads to good decisions, good decisions lead to the right habits, the right habits forge character, and character determines destiny.
Spring is part of the Acton Academy network, where we believe that learning to be, learning to do, and learning to learn are more important than simply learning to know.
Education goes beyond knowledge and skills – it’s also about character. We foster virtues like resilience, integrity, kindness, and courage. The focus is on becoming the kind of person who can navigate life’s challenges with purpose and wisdom.
We believe that the most powerful learning happens through action. Focusing on hands-on projects, real-world challenges, and collaborative work, individuals gain the practical skills necessary to solve problems and make meaningful contributions.
The true value of education lies not just in acquiring knowledge but in mastering the art of learning itself. This belief drives us to inspire our heroes to take full ownership of their educational journey, igniting their natural curiosity and nurturing a profound sense of self-direction.
