Private Middle School

Fusion Academy offers a completely personalized private middle school experience. From classes to scheduling, everything is customized around your student. We balance academics and socialization to create a private junior high school experience unlike any other. Private middle school classes at Fusion Academy are 1-to-1: just 1 student and 1 teacher per class. Teachers match your child’s pace and preferences so they can learn better, dive deeper, and never get left behind. Schedules are customized around your family’s goals and plans. Students connect and collaborate with peers in a safe and structured environment. Coursework is completed as part of the school day. Daily reports for each class session are communicated to parents from your student’s teachers. NOTE: Tuition rates are calculated per course, per term and will vary based on the student’s custom curriculum.

Classes for Credit

Fusion Academy offers core and elective classes for middle and high school credit. In our personalized environment, students can accelerate or remediate. Students come to us to make up a grade, tackle a tough class, get ahead in credits, or take a unique class not offered at their school. NOTE: Tuition pricing will vary based on the student’s custom curriculum.

Before & After Care

Program hours are from 7:00am - 8:00am (before care) and 3:15pm - 6:00pm (after care). The before care and extended day team is led by AppleTree teaching assistants. Fee is based on the family's status with the NSLP (National School Lunch Program).

**For PK3, students must be no younger than three years old on September 30 for the enrolled school year.** Every Child Ready (ECR) is AppleTree’s evidence-based, award-winning early-learning instructional model that drives what to teach, how to teach, and how to tell children are learning.

The Every Child Ready program supports children’s development across social-emotional, physical, cognitive, and academic areas. Children learn through exploration and purposeful play.

Tutoring & Mentoring Programs

Some subjects don’t come easily and can become a barrier to moving forward — academically and emotionally. That’s why we offer tutoring across all required subject areas and for many electives as well. At Fusion, our teachers are our tutors. They are trained in personalized, one-to-one education and are subject matter experts. In the one-to-one setting, they also act as mentors to their students.

The routine is flexible and is adjusted to meet the needs of the toddlers. They begin to eat, sleep, and play at the same time. During this time we begin to transition the children from bottles to sippy or straw cups.
