Acton Academy Santa Barbara will hold a Parent Info Night series this fall, exploring “what education could look like for the next generation.”

The three-part series, open to all Santa Barbara families, blends storytelling, research, and Socratic discussion.

• Sep. 25: The Broken Traditional System — Why schools built for the Industrial Age no longer serve our children.
• Oct. 23: Cultivating Independence & Character — How kids can grow grit, curiosity and leadership in a supportive community.
• Nov. 20: Preparing for the Future of Work & Life — Equipping learners with timeless skills in an age of rapid change.

Each evening stands alone, so families can attend any or all sessions. Light snacks and soft drinks will be provided.

“Acton Academy Santa Barbara is part of a global network of independent schools reinventing education through the Hero’s Journey, Socratic discussions, and real-world projects,” the school said.
