The School That Changes Everything
For students with learning, social, or emotional differences
The power of 1-to-1 education
Fusion Academy’s personalized 1-to-1 learning model matches a student’s pace and preferences –so they can learn better, dive deeper, and never get left behind. With more than 80 accredited schools across the country serving grades 6-12, and a 100% online offering through Fusion Global Academy, it’s time to see if 1-to-1 learning is what your student has been needing this whole time.
The individual attention and support Fusion Academy students receive is unprecedented in a school setting.

A different way to learn for students who learn differently
A research-driven classroom
In all of the academic research, there’s only one thing that moves the needle dramatically when it comes to student learning: dedicated 1-on-1 time with a student and their teacher.
The U.S. Department of Education is the biggest proponent for this - calling on schools nationwide to figure out how to incorporate more 1-on-1 time into their day.
But rather than try to make more time for personalized learning, Fusion Academy designs their entire school day around it.
That’s why Fusion Academy student achievement scores grow 33% more in a school year than their peers nationally.

My son has ADHD and struggled learning in a traditional high school setting. He has greatly benefited from Fusion’s 1-to-1 learning environment. He’s now a senior with great grades, and just got accepted into his college of choice.

What students are right for Fusion?
Fusion Academy is designed for students who need a different educational approach to reach their full potential. This includes students who:
- Need extra support for learning, social, or emotional differences, including ADHD, anxiety, and more.
- Benefit from a more personalized and caring learning environment.
- Learn at a different pace than their peers, needing either more time or accelerated learning options.
- Require a more flexible schedule to pursue other interests, manage health needs, or balance personal commitments.
Fusion solves the constraints of the traditional classroom
When there are 20-30 students in a classroom, a teacher has no choice but to teach to the middle of the room. They may try to give students individual attention, but that can be incredibly hard to find time for. Sometimes they’re forced to move on before every student fully understands a concept. Meanwhile, plenty of kids are bored or restless waiting for the rest of their classmates to catch up.
In Fusion Academy’s 1-to-1 model, their instructors match the pace and preferences of every student. A student will learn better and dive deeper than they can in a traditional classroom. And they’ll never get left behind, because their instructor won’t move on without them.
1-to-1 learning is proven to be the best way to educate students
It is so evident how much Fusion cares for their students. It actually made me sad all students don’t get this type of care.

Personalized education that doesn’t sacrifice socialization
Fusion’s 1-to-1 schools are anything but isolating. Students have full access to dozens of clubs, student organizations, field trips, meet-ups, prom, and more. When they’re not in the classroom, their school days are full of collaboration and peer socialization.
Keeping schoolwork at school
Fusion’s Homework Café gives students time between their 1-on-1 classes to finish assignments before they come home. No more fights about homework, and families get their nights back.

Fusion taught me how to advocate for myself, which helped me land a prestigious research position in a chemistry lab my first semester at Johns Hopkins. I am so grateful for what Fusion Academy allowed me to accomplish, attending my dream university.
