Sora’s Middle School Curriculum
Sora breaks the mold of traditional education. Students meet in live, synchronous classes sessions where they dive into real-world topics that interest them. These classes blend disciplines and focus on hands-on, project-based learning instead of tests. Our approach develops curious, independent thinkers who are prepared for high school and beyond.

⚽️ Physical Education
At Sora, we believe promoting a healthy lifestyle and holistic well-being is as important as academic success.

Given Sora's online format, this credit is completed at home, allowing students to engage in physical activities that best fit their interests and routines.
A look at Sora’s flexible schedule
3 schedule options
Sora has 3 hours and 20 minutes of live classes and office hours on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Your family can choose from three flexible time blocks to fit your schedule (or mix and match for even more flexibility).
Weekly community day
Wednesdays are our community-building day. Instead of classes, it is filled with club meetups, all-school meetings, and other fun activities. It’s also a great time to catch up on projects or connect with your teachers 1:1.
Daily time with advisor
Similar to a home room, students at Sora get grouped into Houses that meet throughout the school year. These houses meet daily with their faculty advisor to check in on academic progress and build valuable friendships.
