Find a calling;
change the world
Aim for something higher
Aim Academy is reinventing education. We help students ages 6-12 discover
and grow their unique strengths — because the
world needs them.
We offer a truly different approach to school. Supported by the latest in technology and cognitive science, we move beyond the traditional tools of lectures, homework, high-stakes tests, and grades. At Aim Academy, our students learn in collaborative classrooms of multi-age learners. Our flexible approach challenges each student with their own differentiated learning plan and inspires them through real-world projects and experiences.
