At Nitty Gritty Preschool, we are proud to be a part of the larger Acton Academy school community. As the preschool Studio for Acton Academy Silicon Valley, we share a common philosophy that empowers students to take control of their learning and follow their interests and passions.
Our approach to education is centered around the belief that every child is unique and has their own set of talents that should be celebrated and developed. With this in mind, our curriculum is designed to empower our learners and provide them with the tools they need to take control of their own learning.
Our program is designed for children up to 8th grade, and we are committed to helping them develop critical life skills such as problem-solving, creativity, self-reflection, and goal-setting. By focusing on these essential skills, we aim to help our students become well-rounded individuals who are prepared to succeed both in and out of the classroom.
The Heart of Early Education
At Nitty Gritty Preschool, our mission is to create a nurturing and inclusive environment that fosters the social, emotional, and academic growth of each child. We believe in partnering with parents to support each child's unique needs and abilities. Our play-based curriculum provides a variety of experiences that balance structured and unstructured activities to encourage creativity, exploration, and problem-solving skills. Our dedicated teachers are committed to helping each child develop their ability to express themselves and prepare them for their future education.
