What To Know

Symbiosis Academy is an independent K-12 school. Families participate through a homeschooling framework that allows students to receive a personalized, holistic education while remaining compliant with Massachusetts education laws.

To meet Massachusetts requirements, families must notify their local school district by submitting a Letter of Intent. Symbiosis provides families with a Letter of Intent template, an individualized education plan, and academic progress reports for each student, which families may submit to their district at the end of the year. 

Please contact us, for more information about this process.

  • Symbiosis Academy’s model is an alternative to traditional school. Students who may not thrive within the traditional model can learn in an environment that is shaped by their learning style, pace, and needs. By redefining the concept of ‘school,’ Symbiosis Academy’s mission is to create a space that is holistic, nurturing, and noncompetitive. Students who complete their high school requirements earn a diploma and are guided through the college application and transition process.

  • We follow the Massachusetts core curriculum requirements for grades K-12 in a mindful, nurturing, and holistic way that honors how the student learns best.

    Students who graduate from Symbiosis receive a transcript and a high school diploma.

    We are with you through the whole process, providing families with what they need to get approval from their district.
