The right school can change everything.

For some students, the traditional school environment just isn't the right fit.
At Southern Wake Academy, our small-school environment gives students room to be themselves while receiving the academic and personal support they need to grow.

Here, students aren't expected to fit into one mold. They're encouraged to discover what they're capable of.

At Southern Wake Academy, supporting students with diverse learning needs means more than academics. It means creating an environment where students feel included, supported, and encouraged to grow academically, socially, and personally.

Our Exceptional Children program provides individualized support based on each student's needs, with collaboration between teachers, families, and our EC team. From co-teaching and individualized learning plans to Life Skills and career-focused opportunities, we work to help students build the skills and confidence they need for their future.
