Online School for Memphis Families | Forest Trail Academy
Your family’s schedule doesn’t fit neatly into a traditional school bell — and in Memphis, that’s more common than you might think. Whether you’re working shifts at FedEx World Headquarters, raising a young musician with after-school rehearsals at a local conservatory, or simply looking for something better than what Memphis City Schools can offer your child right now, Forest Trail Academy gives you a fully accredited K-12 education that works around your life. You get the same quality diploma whether you’re in Midtown, Germantown, or just across the border in Mississippi or Arkansas.
Why Memphis Families Choose FTA
Memphis City Schools serve more than 100,000 students — and for many families, that scale comes with real challenges: overcrowded classrooms, limited advanced course offerings, and little flexibility for kids who learn differently or have demanding schedules outside of school. If your child’s a budding musician practicing at Stax Music Academy, an athlete training year-round, or a student who just needs more one-on-one attention than a large district can provide, FTA was built for exactly that situation. You don’t have to choose between your child’s passion and a quality education.
The Memphis metro also draws tens of thousands of workers through FedEx, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and AutoZone — companies with demanding and sometimes irregular hours. When a parent’s shift changes or a family relocates mid-year, public school enrollment becomes a logistical headache. FTA fixes that. Since we enroll students from Tennessee, Mississippi, and Arkansas, tri-state families near the Memphis border don’t have to scramble for a new school every time life shifts. One enrollment, one curriculum, no disruption — no matter where you land.
