At WAIA, we serve as a homeschool partner, not a traditional private school—yet. We work directly with families across Georgia who want a flexible, NCAA-aligned academic structure paired with high-level athletic development and recruiting support.
Whether your student is preparing for college, wants to compete in GHSA sports, or needs a structured curriculum plan, WAIA is here to support your homeschool journey.
COMING SOON: WAIA will launch its private school diploma program in 2027, offering a full-time enrollment track with accreditation and graduation pathways.

How It Works
- You file a Declaration of Intent (DOI) to homeschool through the Georgia Department of Education
- WAIA helps you build a custom academic + athletic plan
- You remain the instructor of record (per Georgia law), and WAIA provides curriculum tools, tracking, and support
- We help student-athletes play sports at their local public school under GHSA rules (SB 42)
Homeschool + GHSA Sports? Yes.
Under Georgia’s SB 42, homeschoolers can participate in extracurricular activities—including sports—at their zoned public school. WAIA helps you:
