Online School for Wichita Families | Forest Trail Academy
Your family’s schedule doesn’t fit neatly into a traditional school calendar — and in Wichita, that’s more common than you might think. Whether your household runs on Boeing shift rotations, McConnell Air Force Base deployment cycles, or the rhythms of a working farm outside the city, Forest Trail Academy gives your child a full, accredited K-12 education that moves with you — not against you.
Why Wichita Families Choose FTA
Wichita is the Air Capital of the World, and that means thousands of families here work non-traditional hours. If you’re an aerospace engineer at Spirit AeroSystems, a production technician at Textron Aviation, or an active-duty airman at McConnell AFB, you know that your kids’ school schedule rarely lines up with your reality. FTA’s self-paced model means your student can log in before a long shift, on a weekend, or during a mid-week break — no missed lessons, no falling behind because of a schedule that doesn’t bend.
Wichita also has one of the strongest homeschool and faith-based education communities in Kansas. Families from the local Mennonite and Conservative Christian communities have trusted FTA because it gives parents real oversight of what their children are learning while still delivering a rigorous, fully accredited curriculum. And for the rural families driving in from Sedgwick County and the surrounding agricultural communities, FTA eliminates the long bus rides and geographic barriers entirely — your child gets the same quality education whether you’re five miles from downtown or forty miles out on the plains.
