Acera: The Massachusetts School of Science, Creativity and Leadership
Acera is a progressive non-profit STEAM school serving high-ability students in grades K-10. At Acera, students learn by ability, not age: in a supportive, energetic environment, enabled by highly motivated teacher-entrepreneurs. Learning at Acera is contextual, interdisciplinary, and hands-on and often happens in our professionally equipped MakerSpace and Science Lab. In addition to our full-day programs, we offer after school and summer enrichment programs, open to both Acera and non-Acera students, through Acera's STEAM Learning Lab.
