Built by Acton Insiders, for Acton Owners

Journey Suite was created by Acton insiders who faced the same challenges you do—managing enrollment, engaging parents, and running a thriving campus without drowning in admin work. We built this platform to free owners to focus on what matters most: learners and community.

Bill Jones

Bill Jones is husband to Amy and proud father of Ruby (9) and Roy (6).

A seasoned entrepreneur in the oil and gas industry, Bill has always carried a deep passion for education, innovation, and building strong communities.

His journey into education began as a Master Guide at the Acton School of Business, where he saw firsthand the power of learner-driven models.

He went on to become the Co-Founder of Acton Academy Dripping Springs, and later, Co-Founder of Journey Suite—a platform built to help schools and families thrive by simplifying operations and deepening engagement.

At the heart of Bill’s work is a belief that parents and educators should have the tools they need to focus less on admin and more on guiding young heroes in their learning journeys.
