What is a virtual school for dyslexia?

A virtual school for dyslexia teaches your child online with tools and support built for how they learn. At Novatio, every student works at their own pace, with text-to-speech, extended time, and frequent breaks built into the day. There's no separate resource room. It's just how the school works.

How does Novatio support students with dyslexia?

Novatio offers a Special Education Support Program with 1:1 specialist-led reading intervention, small-group executive-function coaching, and case management. This program carries an additional cost. For students with an IEP or 504 plan, Texas TEFA funding typically covers it, and you work out the details with the Head of School.

Does Texas TEFA cover Novatio?

Novatio's tuition is covered for eligible Texas families through TEFA. Students with an IEP or 504 plan receive a higher TEFA award than the standard amount, so families who need extra support often have more funding available, not less.

What grades does Novatio serve?

Novatio serves students in grades 4 to 8. The school is private, virtual, and AI-driven, with live teachers guiding students in small groups. The school year starts August 3, 2026.

What sets us apart.

Master Academics in 2 Hours

Mornings are devoted to core academics, where students learn twice the curriculum and advance beyond peers in just two hours a day. Our school day is designed to eliminate boredom and wasted time.

AI-Driven Personalization

Novatio’s AI customizes a student’s learning plan to plug gaps where they’re struggling and challenge them where they’re thriving. Plus, our AI tutor is there to offer personalized help and feedback at lightning speed.

Afternoons for Real World

Afternoons are free for pursuing their passions and developing real world skills alongside friends in our Novatio Clubs: think everything from learning how to start a business (and earning real money) to developing an app to publishing their articles and stories online to mastering ever-complex chess skills.
