PRIVATE SCHOOL | ODESSA, TX

Nerd Academy was built to do two things well: build a strong literacy foundation early, and help students grow from there. Without strong literacy skills, upper grades and future-ready learning become harder to grasp, no matter how innovative the curriculum is. When students are ready for more, we build on that foundation with AI literacy, coding, and PetroSTEAM learning.

What We Do

We build the foundation, then we raise the ceiling.

Most schools keep pushing forward, even when kids are missing key skills. That’s how gaps turn into years of frustration.

At Nerd Academy, we do the opposite.

We start with the foundation: literacy and math.
Reading changes everything. It’s the gateway skill for school and life, and we treat it like it matters.
We keep class sizes small on purpose.
Because kids don’t magically catch up in a room of 25.
We build structure, confidence, and real momentum.
When kids feel safe and capable, behavior improves and learning accelerates.
Then we go further.
Hands-on learning, problem solving, and modern skill-building like AI literacy and coding, introduced in a way that actually makes sense for kids.

Inside the Classroom

When a Child Falls Behind

If your child is falling behind, we don’t shame them, we fix the root problem.

A lot of parents come to us frustrated because they’ve tried everything and nothing sticks.

Here’s what we do differently:

We identify the real gap, not just the grade level
We strengthen reading and comprehension step-by-step
We build fluency and confidence together
We keep parents informed with clear, consistent communication

Your child isn’t broken. Most of the time, they were just never given the support they needed when it mattered most.

How We Assess and Catch Students Up

Strong Anti-Bullying Policies

If your child doesn’t feel safe at school, learning becomes survival.

Some kids are anxious. Some are sensitive. Some have learned to stay quiet because school feels unpredictable. Some have been bullied or labeled instead of understood.

We take that seriously.

At Nerd Academy, students are expected to:

treat others with respect
follow structure
take ownership of behavior
learn in a calm, safe environment

A child who feels safe learns faster, grows faster, and starts showing you more of who they really are.

How We Handle Bullying

Small Class Sizes-
15 Max

If public school feels like chaos, you’re not imagining it.

Large systems do not have time to slow down, and kids can fall behind quietly for years.

Small classes change everything.

At Nerd Academy:

teachers have time to teach
problems are caught early
progress is monitored closely
students are known, not managed
parents aren’t left guessing

This is a school designed for students to be seen, supported, and challenged without getting swallowed by the crowd.

Benefits of Small Class Sizes

Beyond the Basics

If your child is bored, we raise the ceiling.

Some kids are not struggling, they’re stalled. They finish early, tune out, and start hating school because it feels like waiting around.

We create challenge through:

deeper reading and critical thinking
hands-on projects and real-world topics
problem solving and creativity
modern tools like coding and AI literacy

We want kids to feel proud of what they can do, and hungry to do more.

How We Raise the Ceiling

Real parents.
Real results.

Your child shouldn’t have to “push through” school.

If school is stressful, chaotic, unsafe, or just not working, the answer isn’t always more homework and more patience. Sometimes the answer is a different environment. Nerd Academy exists to be that environment.
