Our mission

Cultivating the Potential in Every Student

3 Oaks Academy exists to cultivate the potential in every student to thrive as a global citizen — inspiring a love of learning and challenging and supporting each child to reach their fullest academic success. We were founded in 2018 by educators who refused to believe that a child who learns differently is a child who can't.

We serve students the standard classroom was never designed for: those with dyslexia, ADHD, and IEPs or 504 plans, as well as gifted and twice-exceptional learners. Our model is personalized by design — small groups, personalized learning pathways, and our signature Week Without Walls experiential program.

Who we serve

The Students the System Overlooks

A K–12 population of learners who need a different approach — and rarely find it in a traditional setting.

Learning Differences

Students with dyslexia, ADHD, and IEPs or 504 plans, taught with Orton-Gillingham and multisensory methods.

Gifted & Twice-Exceptional

Bright students who are gifted and learn differently — too often unsupported in both directions at once.

Families Seeking Fit

Families across Southwest Florida and the Lake Norman area who need a school built around how their child actually learns.

Current enrollment figures and demographic breakdowns are available to partners on request.

Outcomes

A Proven, Measurable Model

Our students don't just stay in school — they move forward. 100% of our graduates have been accepted to college, and our 9:1 student-to-teacher ratio means every child is known, measured, and supported individually. We track growth student by student and report it transparently.

Areas of funding need

Where a Partnership Goes

A gift to 3 Oaks connects directly to a concrete result — for example, $10,000 funds a student's Week Without Walls for their full school career.

Tuition Assistance

Need-based scholarships that open a seat for families who don't fully qualify for state programs.

Week Without Walls

Travel and program costs for our signature experiential learning program, so every student can go.

Technology & Curriculum

Devices, software, and personalized materials that make personalized learning work.

Campus & Capacity

Flexible learning spaces and the staff to grow our model across both campuses.
