    The Opportunity

    Do you want to change the world? Only three times in human history has the opportunity for learning changed as dramatically as it has in our decade: the invention of written language, the invention of the printing press, and the invention of the internet. What's possible in a K-12 school has changed just as fundamentally. Acton Academy Bee Cave is part of the Acton Academy network, a new school model praised by the Gates Foundation's former Executive Director of Education as "one of the most important education developments in the world."
