Many parents homeschool because their child has special needs. Homeschooling may be the best setting if traditional school has not met their needs well. Wings to Soar Online Academy equips and empowers your child with special needs to thrive.
Are you looking for homeschooling programs for a child with special needs? Or are they outside-the-box in their learning style? Do you have concerns about your child’s learning? Need after-school intervention? Whether your child with special needs has an official diagnosis, Wings to Soar Online Academy can help.
Don’t try to recreate school at home. Most struggling learners don’t do well with a pre-packaged curriculum that comes in a box. Most students have a wide range of skill levels within themselves. They don’t fit into a grade level curriculum.
That’s why Wings to Soar Online Academy creates a Path to Success™ Personalized Learning Plan for each student. Start with requesting free Just-Right Level™ Assessments. This allows them to start each student at their own Just-Right Level in each skill strand.
Wings to Soar Online Academy specializes in empowering dyslexics and other outside-the-box learners. They offer personalized education through online learning. They partner with parents in 34 US states and 10 foreign countries.
As you search for solutions to help your child, know that “perfect course” may not be the solution for your child. Academic courses are tools, not solutions to learning challenges. Course content and structure should always be your servant and your guide. It should not be your taskmaster. You are teaching a child, not a curriculum. Move as slow as needed, but fast as they are ready in each moment.
That’s how Wings to Soar Online Academy sees curriculum and courses. They meet each child where they are in their development. The child’s needs guide them. They start with what’s working and come alongside you to help with the things that aren’t.

- Investigate your child’s learning gaps
- Compile a picture of your child’s strengths and challenges
- Create a personalized learning plan to fill those gaps
