From a Montessori pod to three Acton Academy campuses: Virginia founder Jackie Hill

Jackie Hill is the founder of Acton Academy Hampton Roads in the southeast part of Virginia. A mom of 5 and a Montessori teacher, Jackie wanted a different educational experience for her own children. In 2008, she created a little Montessori learning pod in her living room that kept growing and growing and eventually evolved into a democratic school and later into three Acton Academy campuses. *** Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly email newsletter on education trends at fee.org/liberated.
