K-8: Where Students Learn, Connect, and Grow Together
At World Academy, our K-8 programs nurture curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning. Our curriculum is designed to challenge and support students at every stage—from the hands-on discovery of our Kindergarten classrooms all the way through the academically challenging and diverse opportunities for our Middle School students. Here, every child is encouraged to grow at their own pace with an individualized learning plan seamlessly coordinate for them.
Our small class sizes and specialized enrichment programs (including Music, Art, World Languages, and Technology) give each student the space to think and grow, empowering their imaginative freedom every step of the way. With an emphasis on academic excellence, personal development, and community, World Academy provides a supportive environment where children thrive—intellectually, socially, and emotionally.
Kindergarten
We embrace the energy and curiosity of five-year-olds at World Academy, creating a dynamic learning environment where they can be themselves: vibrant, active individuals. Our Kindergarten program invites these curious minds to work cooperatively, give, and take on leadership roles. With a curriculum designed to spark curiosity while building strong foundations in language and math, we nurture each child’s natural desire to learn. Our full-day program operates five days a week, from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM, with optional before- and after-school care available. Students must be five years old by October 1st of the current school year to enroll.
Elementary
Childhood should be filled with curiosity, creativity, and the joy of discovery. Our Elementary program is designed to instill in students a lifelong love of learning. Designed for Grades 1-4, we nurture each child’s physical, social, emotional, and academic growth while building a strong foundation for future experiences: a sense of self. The curriculum strikes a balance between structure and imaginative freedom. Core subjects include Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies, complemented by enriching programs in Music, Art, Physical Education, World Languages, and Technology. Classes run five days a week (8:30 AM – 3:00 PM), with optional before and after-school care for added flexibility.
Middle School
In Grades 5-8, we meet our older students with an in-depth, diverse curriculum that challenges them to think critically and enrich their problem-solving skills. They’re invited to enter a dynamic learning environment with academically rigorous courses, unique electives, and engaging extracurricular activities that offer opportunities to take on leadership roles, collaborate with peers, and explore their passions. Our goal is to ensure every student graduates from our program ready to take on any challenge ahead. Classes are conducted five days a week from 7:45 am – 2:30 pm, with the option to extend the day with our Before and After School Program.
Before & After School
Offering K-8 students a safe space to unwind, explore, and connect, our Before- and After-School programs balance relaxation with enrichment, extending the school day with more opportunities to foster friendships and promote personal growth. Led by our dedicated full-time teachers, students can receive homework support, dive into arts and crafts, and enjoy exciting seasonal activities. Available exclusively to World Academy families, we also offer options for school vacations, holidays, and snow days, ensuring a seamless, enriching experience beyond the classroom.
“We began exploring private school options when we realized how profoundly bored our daughter was in the second grade of our public school system. We visited World Academy upon a friend’s recommendation and in 10 minutes we knew World Academy was the perfect fit. At World, the culture of academic excellence is very clear. My daughter is now 12 and receiving high honors. Words cannot express our gratitude to World Academy.”
