Where every child matters

Kids Unlimited Academy opened in 2013 as an educational option for families who want more for their children than traditional public schools provide. KUA combines best-practice curriculum with staff dedicated to our mission and vision of “Empowerment Through Opportunity.” Our goal is to help children and families overcome the barriers they face, preparing them to thrive socially, emotionally and academically.

Kids Unlimited Academy students throughout October will gather pledges for the charter school’s annual Jog-a-Thon fundraiser. Planned for Tuesday, Nov. 3, indoors at Rogue X Community Complex, KUA’s Jog-a-Thon helps to fund school supplies, enrichment, field trips, events and other activities.

Jog-a-Thon pledges can be in a set amount or per lap each student runs. KUA is using printed pledge forms and the online platform 99Pledges. Download fundraiser materials here in English and Spanish.

Principal’s Message

Accepted. Valued. Empowered.

These core principles of Kids Unlimited Academy compose the theme for our 2026-27 school year.

“Empowerment through opportunity” is the Kids Unlimited mission. We reach this ideal, however, only when students are seen, heard and guided in safe, caring environments toward their individual growth and development.

At KUA, a free public charter school, we accept all students just as they are, regardless of their background, culture, gender, ethnicity, income, language, abilities or educational needs. With a larger enrollment in 2026-27, KUA is accepting even more students to benefit from our enriching programs and high-expectations, no-excuses environment. KUA’s school uniforms are just one indicator that everyone belongs, and we’re all in this together.

Schoolwide values at KUA reinforce the message that each student is valued. Students who demonstrate respect, responsibility and integrity are recognized at each trimester’s Royal Awards assemblies. We emphasize these values through appropriate language and communication, appropriate personal space and boundaries, honoring each person’s culture, valuing diversity, choosing truth and honesty and striving toward every opportunity while providing them to others.

KUA leadership believes that students with educational opportunities are empowered throughout a lifetime of learning. Several new KUA opportunities in 2026-27 advance this mission.

High-dosage tutoring will be available after school at KUA with support from the Medford school district. Funded by Oregon Department of Education, this supplement for high-need students aims to improve early literacy.

Social-emotional learning is a continued focus this year at KUA. Student engagement and positive feedback related to Ripple Effects, our research-based SEL curriculum, shows a meaningful impact that we believe will only keep growing.

As always, parents are vital partners in KUA’s mission, and their involvement makes all the difference. Please model and practice our values and habits with your student daily. And join our school community at monthly events that promote collaboration, connection and celebration!

Thank you for your commitment to our charter school, our students and our shared purpose.
