What is CHOICE?
CHOICE Learning Center is a place where a child, along with their parents, determines their learning goals and curricula. CHOICE creates a unique learning environment for your child with the resources, peer-to-peer coaching, and games/challenges to make learning enjoyable and fruitful. Everyone learns differently. If you envision a different learning environment for your child, please consider CHOICE!
2024/2025 Admissions?
We are at capacity in our current building and do not have any remaining spots for 2024/2025. We are building on a farm property in Woods Cross. We will be adding on a second studio for ages 4-8 in 2025/2026. There will only be a few spots available for the older studios. Applications now will get you on the waitlist for our new location. We are looking for more self-driven learners who are ready to take on the world!

You’ll wish learning was like this when you were younger. This is what happens each week…
Small wins
Session 2, Week 5 As our family and friends were standing, jumping, and collapsing around the T.V. screen screaming at the top of our lungs last weekend, it would have appeared to an onlooker that there was much more going on than a college football game! This is a...
It’s freezing in here!
Session 2, Week 4 As the weather turned this week, it quickly became apparent which heaters were working and which heaters were not working around the school. For a few days it was pretty darn cold in some parts of the studios! It was awesome to watch the heroes...
In disguise
Session 2, Week 3 Halloween week is fun! Bits and pieces of costumes creep in all week until the day finally arrives and heroes are dressed in full disguise. As I watched the Halloween happenings it occurred to me that the heroes in costume were not the only things in...
Astounded
Session 2, Week 2 Thomas Edison said "If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally astound ourselves." We see both sides of this in our heroes every day. Sometimes heroes choose not to do everything they are capable of, and they can take advantage of...
Is it OK to Quit?
Session 2, Week 1 Last year the DELTA heroes were given a survival scenario where they were on a hike and dangerous lightning and wind arose. The heroes were asked what they would do. It was fascinating to listen to many heroes who said they wouldn't turn around...
Landing
Each year, session and even day are framed by the learning arc. A beginning launch which introduces or sets our trajectory, an arc where the learning experiences and challenges take place, and then a landing where the year/session/day is reflected upon and wrapped up....
What our heroes (students) and their parents say…
I love the confidence-building atmosphere. It makes learning possible and more enjoyable! He said to me at the beginning of the school year, “I’m going to this school so I can be responsible and learn for myself.” So true! He is taking responsibility for himself and his own learning here! Before CHOICE, we struggled getting to school, emotionally and physically. Several months in, he still wakes up early so he’s not late for another fantastic day!

CHOICE has been such a blessing for our kids. It is so comforting knowing our kids are in a positive environment that is helping them grow! Not only are they learning scholastic skills, they are also learning how to become wonderful, strong individuals and how to handle everyday life. It has been so much fun watching our kids grow and come home so happy each day.

I highly recommend CHOICE. As I did my research about Acton Academies, I really liked their philosophy. I love that my child isn’t just learning for a test, but learning things like: initiative, responsibility, grit, gratitude, critical thinking, and collaboration. I love so much about CHOICE, but my favorite thing is they truly see each child as a hero. Whether my child has had a productive day or not, I know she is loved at CHOICE.

We have seen wonderful changes in our 1st grader these past few months! Where she would usually get frustrated and quit if something got difficult, she will now stop, assess, ask questions to figure things out. Most days when she comes home she prefers to continue learning and asking questions rather than watch T.V. When we decided to start this Hero’s Journey we knew we’d be on the right track if our child developed a love for learning and that exact thing has happened – but in much less time than expected!
