Hello! We are the Harsins and
We started an Independent School
in Lincoln, Nebraska for families like yours!
We felt Lincoln needed a top-rated micro school option instead of the outdated traditional school model that emphasizes fitting into the box rather than charting your own path. If you're like us and believe there's more to education than test taking and lectures let us send you a FREE info kit. Let's reinvent education for our kids right here in Lincoln, Nebraska!!

What is Acton Academy Lincoln?
What is the difference between Acton and other Lincoln area schools?
- From Elementary School to Middle School and on into High School, we use the latest technology in a self-paced learning environment that is designed to foster responsibility, goal-setting, and teamwork. Acton students are empowered to thrive in a world that needs independent, motivated thinkers and learners.
- We believe students learn by doing. Whether it’s launching a startup business, creating a tidepool habitat, playing a musical instrument, painting a mosaic, or programming a robot, Acton students are building real-life skills in the classroom every day.
- We believe the learning experience is much richer when the teacher (“Guide”) offers insightful questions and facilitates hands-on learning. Guides use the Socratic method, always responding to students’ questions with new questions. This exchange hones students’ critical thinking skills. No boring sit in your desk teacher-led lecture-style learning at Acton!
- We are “student led.” This means young people take ownership of their education and peer relationships. Acton students learn to think independently, take responsibility and embrace challenge. They are being prepared to bring their own unique genius to the world.
- We believe in the power of apprenticeships. Beginning in middle school, our students obtain summer internships in a field they are passionate about. Acton students have interned with doctors, entrepreneur bakers, plumbers, attorneys and graphic designers. What will your child choose?
- We encourage our students to 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.
