Education Reimagined
A Microschool for Outside-the-Box Thinkers, Doers and Dreamers in Middle & High School in the Raleigh Durham Triangle
What Is Wonder?
Wonder is a hybrid microschool in Cary, NC serving middle and high school students in the Raleigh Durham Triangle who are outside-the-box thinkers, dreamers, and doers. We combine deep academics, small group connection, and real-world exploration to help every student discover who they are and what they care about — not just what they can memorize.
If your learner is deeply thoughtful, wildly imaginative, purposefully hands-on, or just hasn’t felt at home in traditional school, Wonder offers something different — and deeply meaningful.
What Makes Wonder Different
Small groups. Big thinking. Our hybrid model combines the best of project-based learning, academic challenge, and community connection in the Raleigh-Durham Triangle.
Curiousity Comes first
We offer rich, accelerated, interdisciplinary classes in science, humanities, math, and the arts—shaped around real-world questions, not the kind found on standardized tests.
Real World Learning
Through field experiences, hands-on labs, and long-term pasion projects, students connect learning to life.
Creative Expression
Whether it’s music, fashion, foreign language, theater, or writing—students bring their own passions into their learning at our maker-space in Cary, NC.
STudent Agency
Learners have voice and choice in what and how they learn. We help them build the habits, confidence, and skills they’ll need in college, life, and beyond.
Small by Design
Our tight-knit community allows for meaningful relationships, daily connection, and individualized support.
Mentorship & Meaning
Students grow with the guidance of dedicated educators and mentors who encourage both academic excellence and self-discovery.
