For Teens Who Want More Than a Textbook

Astrolabe Academy

What if science wasn’t something you memorized—but something you lived?

At Astrolabe Academy, we don’t believe in desks, bells, or busywork. We believe in real experiments, real data, and real-world impact. Whether you’re testing water quality at your local river, analyzing satellite data from your laptop, or planning a future expedition of your own—this is high school without the cage.

Our programs are designed for teens who want to:

Get out of the classroom and into the world
Explore environmental science, sustainability, and storytelling
Design their own learning pathway (and still earn credit)
Be part of something that matters

A Learning Model That Grows With You

Astrolabe Academy is the learner-driven sister program of Cultivating Currents—built to turn hands-on science into high school credit and post-grad opportunity.

📚 Transcripts that Travel: Custom learning plans → college-ready records

👩‍🔬 Mentorship Over Grades: Learn from scientists, not just teachers

🛠️ Built for Microschools, Homeschoolers & Unschoolers

Whether you’re on the dock, in the woods, or at your kitchen table—
