Every kid is different. Their school should be too.
Sora Education is the home of Sora Schools, Aeon School, Sora Homeschool and The Sora Program. Four ways to learn, one promise: help every student grow into a capable, confident person.
Watch our story
Four schools and programs. One shared promise.
What we believe
Great education starts with knowing the student.
Before we talk programs, we get to know the kid. Every student has an adult who knows them, a path that fits them, and work they’re proud to show.
01 · Personalized growth
In a one-size-fits-all education system,
every student should be known.
Strengths, interests and aspirations
Advisory and individual pathways
Support and challenge to grow
02 · Academic quality
In a system focused on grades and test scores,
every student should make things that matter.
Real-world problems
Projects with purpose
Work students are proud of
03 · Human development
In a future shaped by AI,
every student should develop human skills for life.
Agency and sense-making
Storytelling and empathy
Career exploration
Our schools
One promise. Four ways to learn.
From self-paced homeschool to seminar-style classes to tuition-free public partnerships, every program is built to help students grow into capable, confident people.
Discovery & application
Where students learn by building what they care about.
Students explore what they care about and show what they know through real projects, with detailed feedback instead of letter grades. Live classes, a daily House meeting with an advisor, and Life After Sora counseling for whatever comes next.

Why now
School hasn’t kept up with how families live. We’re changing that.
AI, remote work and new expectations are reshaping family life. Families want school to flex with them, and Sora Education is built for exactly that.
01
Work is changing. Family life is too.
As AI reshapes jobs over the next decade, many parents will work fewer hours, work from anywhere and travel more. A school tied to one building and one schedule won’t fit those families.
02
Parents want answers about AI.
Families are asking what AI means for their kids: which skills will matter, and how to prepare. They want a school that helps them feel ready.
03
Families want choices, not one-size-fits-all.
Some want a school built around community. Some want confidence and creativity. Some want an elite path to top universities. Families will choose the kind of learning, not just the schedule.
04
Public schools want flexible options.
Districts are serving more non-traditional families and want flexible, engaging options for them. They’re coming to Sora to provide them.
The Sora Program
Bringing Sora to public schools, tuition-free.
Districts and charter schools partner with us to give families a flexible, project-based option. Families pay nothing. Partners get a ready-to-run curriculum, platform and team.
Partner school
Torrance Meridian Academy
A tuition-free charter school with Torrance Unified, co-designed with Sora. Grades 5–8 are open and enrolling, with grades 9–12 opening in 2027. Live virtual classes four days a week, with optional in-person enrichment on Fridays.
Partner school
The Classical Academies
A full-time, tuition-free online middle school for grades 6–8, built with The Classical Academies, a group of California public charter schools. Live online classes four days a week, with optional campus activities on Fridays.
Two ways to staff it
