Mountaineer Academy of Excellence
Charles Town, WV
Want a different approach to normal schooling? Then think Mountaineer Academy of Excellence, located in Charles Town, WV and serving all of WV. We are empowered by WonderED. Our learners enroll with WonderED K-12, an accredited state-approved school that provides a competency-based and project-based learning curriculum. Each student's education is individualized based on their likes and career direction. While much of the student work is done online with access for parents, my small "one-room school" offers a variety of other activities to meet WV guidelines for education.
Our Focus at Mountaineer Academy of Excellence Community Campus
WonderED K-12 curriculum meets WV education standards. Our WonderED curriculum provides competency-based, personalized learning that incorporates academics within projects driven by the students' interests and passions - bringing the love back into learning. When your child enrolls, we do an assessment of their skills and learning in academics. Then, your child's learning pathway is designed especially for them. We will also offer additional activities that they can do once their school work is complete. We will have a monthly calendar with the activities posted so they can pick and choose which ones they want to attend if they want to do the virtual program. We are looking to offer music, art, and physical education this year for k-12. We will also work with high school students on elective classes to meet graduation requirements. We will have a book club and are within walking distance to the library to check out books.
Empowered by WonderED
Mountaineer is empowered by WonderED. They partner with us to provide curriculum resources, support, and an online platform for our students to create work, teachers to assess and guide their progress, and families to observe their students’ successes. WonderED is an accredited k-12 program, meaning that Rocky Stars graduates receive accredited diplomas accepted at hundreds of colleges and universities throughout the U.S.
