  • What grades does Littleton Academy offer?
    Littleton Academy serves students in grades K-9 in the 2025-2026 school year. Our plan is to add a grade each year.
  • How is Littleton Academy different from the local traditional school?
    As a small school community, Littleton Academy focuses on the unique learning style of every student. We implement Experiential Learning as the basis of instruction. While students learn to read, write, and calculate, they also solve real-world problems as they complete projects that improve their school and the community around them. Each student will be equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to become the very best version of themselves.
  • What is “Experiential Learning” and why is this important?
    We believe students learn best by DOING. Experiential education provides students with real-world, hands-on, and S.T.E.A.M.-focused experiences that spark an entrepreneurial spirit and equip each student with the knowledge and skills necessary to become the very best version of themselves. All students engage in learning opportunities within the community where they solve problems that directly impact their neighborhood and, potentially, the world.
