Performance Academy

Performance Academy is a daytime enrichment program created for homeschool and online-learning students who want more opportunities to learn, move, connect, and grow. Students combine independent academic work with athletic development, multi-sport experiences, leadership training, and meaningful social interaction—all while families maintain the flexibility they love about homeschooling.

Where

Wildcat Athletics Academy

Wichita, KS

Students have access to a dedicated multi-sport training facility featuring basketball courts, indoor turf, baseball and softball training areas, cheer space, a weight room, and areas for academic work and leadership development.

What Is Performance Academy?

Performance Academy bridges the gap between independent education and the experiences children traditionally gain from being part of a larger school community.

Students maintain their family's chosen homeschool or online curriculum while Performance Academy provides academic accountability, physical activity, athletic development, leadership opportunities, teamwork, and consistent peer interaction.

We aren't replacing your homeschool. We're adding to it.

Skills That Extend Beyond Sports

Students learn responsibility, communication, teamwork, perseverance, confidence, and what it means to lead themselves and others.

🤝 CONNECTION

Homeschool Doesn't Have to Mean Home Alone

Students have consistent opportunities to develop friendships, work as a team, compete, communicate, and simply spend time with other kids.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Performance Academy may be a great fit for families looking for:

✓ Athletic development without specializing in one sport

✓ Leadership and character development

✓ A structured weekly routine

✓ Flexibility around their existing homeschool curriculum

✓ A positive environment that challenges their child to grow


Your child does NOT need to currently participate in Wildcat Athletics or play competitive sports to enroll.

WHAT PERFORMANCE ACADEMY IS NOT

Performance Academy is an enrichment program and does not provide homeschool curriculum or replace the parent/guardian's responsibility for their child's education.

Families select and provide their student's curriculum and necessary academic materials. During our Academic Accountability Block, staff provide supervision, structure, encouragement, and accountability rather than individualized academic instruction.

WHAT STUDENTS SHOULD BRING

Each day students should arrive with:

  • Academic materials needed for the day
  • Laptop/tablet and charger if required
  • Headphones
  • Water bottle
  • Packed lunch
  • Snack
  • Athletic shoes
  • Comfortable athletic clothing
