Learning
We bring wonder into your child's learning by using an innovative methodology called Project-Based Learning (PBL). This helps to increase your child’s engagement and a pathway to graduation.
​
WonderED K12 Academy provides competency-based, personalized learning that incorporates academics within projects driven by the student's interests and passions - bringing the “wonder” back into learning. When your child enrolls, we do an assessment of their skills and learning in academics. Then, your child's learning pathway is designed specifically for them. Our curriculum is based on achieving competencies, not "seat time"!
​
A WonderED Success Coach will be assigned to your child as their partner in guiding the child's learning. You will serve as your child's learning partner as well, logging into our flexible WonderED Tech™ to see the real-time status and progress of your child’s work and their evidence of learning!
Your child will graduate with competence in academics and highly desired 21st-century career skills - collaboration, creativity, communication, critical thinking, and problem-solving.
Safe
Our world is one where we do not always feel safe. That can be true for schools as well. At WonderED Academy, your child's online school for K12 can be accessed from wherever they feel safe. Away from bullies, school violence, and other situations that detract from learning.
Happy
"I hate school". You may have heard that directly from your child, which may be the result of their experience in traditional schools. It may be related to issues with relationships, a sense of educational failure, lack of respect, emotional difficulties, plain old boredom, or any combination of those factors. At WonderED Academy, we have developed an online school for K12 designed to address all of those issues and bring happiness back to your child's educational experience.
Growing
All families want to see their children succeed, and that success is based on confidence. At WonderED, how the child learned in the past is irrelevant. We start fresh with each student and develop an educational journey specifically for your child, in which they learn at their own pace. Each moment of success breeds learning confidence, engagement, and growth in learning.
