Imagine Academy

Acton Imagine is a learner-driven academy serving students from Kindergarten through 12th grade in Temple/Belton, Texas. The school’s mission is to help children find their calling and equip them to change the world. Rooted in Socratic principles and real-world learning, Acton Imagine offers an alternative to traditional education by fostering curiosity, self-governance, and hands-on problem-solving. Students engage in interactive core learning at their own pace, pursue real-world quests, and participate in apprenticeships. The academy emphasizes character development, gratitude, and purpose, believing that every child is a genius with the potential to lead a meaningful life. Founded by Chip Franks and inspired by Naveen Jain, Acton Imagine promotes values of freedom, purpose, and individualized education.
