About
Our School

Genius International School is dedicated to inspiring each child to see life as a Hero's Journey, where someone with curiosity and character can find a 'calling'. We promote a self-paced learning environment designed to foster responsibility, goal-setting, and teamwork. Our children are empowered to thrive in a world that needs independent, motivated thinkers and learners.

We believe children learn best by doing. Whether it’s launching a startup business, creating a habitat, playing a musical instrument, painting a mosaic, or programming a robot, our children are building real-life skills in the classroom every day.

We encourage our students to grow in self-awareness and develop personal virtues such as honesty, hard work, responsibility, kindness, and empathy. Armed with purpose and good character, we believe our students will launch into adulthood prepared to find their calling and change the world.

At Genius International, we are turning learning upside down and adapting it for the 21st Century and we invite you and your family to come be a part of a vibrant community.

CEO’s Welcome

As parents of three young children, my husband and I believe strongly that each came to earth with unique gifts and passions that would be theirs to cherish. We believe our role as parents is to inspire and equip them to reach the potential that is already within them, by inspiring them to embark on what we call a Hero's Journey.

These principles reverberate through history as men and women, heroes, have given all in the pursuit of individual liberty. This belief is what drew us to Acton Academy, a place where children were deeply respected, discovering how they uniquely contributed to the world, rather than how they can become just like everybody else.

We continue to learn so much on this journey, but we do know we want our children to be prepared for a meaningful life, with 21st-century skills that focus on learning to "Do" and to "Be" while embracing lifelong learning.

Mission and Vision of Genius International School

Mission & Vision

Our mission is to inspire each person who enters our doors to find a calling that will change the world.

Our Vision is to establish a learner-centered system in which all children thrive, are able to deeply engage in their own communities as well as the larger global community, and are prepared and excited for their future.

We envision an educational framework that is agile and that responds to the economical, technological, and societal shifts that are happening at an ever-increasing pace. It's an education that sets children up to succeed in a world where more than half of the jobs they'll have over their careers don't even exist yet.

Our Philosophy

We believe clear thinking leads to good decisions, good decisions lead to the right habits, the right habits forge character, and character determines destiny.
