Our Curriculum & Future Vision
At Seascape Academies, we are committed to providing structured, individualized education that supports the whole child — academically, socially, and emotionally.
Our Curriculum Includes:
Math: Saxon Math 54 — clear, incremental lessons ideal for students who thrive on consistency
Reading: Explode the Code — phonics-based program that supports decoding and fluency
Social-Emotional Learning: Daily instruction to build emotional regulation, flexibility, and peer interaction
Customized Plans: Every student receives an individualized approach shaped by their unique strengths and needs
We pair these time-tested programs with new innovations — including the responsible use of AI tools and real-world engagement strategies to make learning more relevant and exciting.
Real-World Math Through Sports
To make abstract math concepts more tangible for our students, Seascape is launching a sports-integrated math initiative. In partnership with local sports teams, such as the Savannah Bananas and Ghost Pirates, we’ll bring learning to life through real-time team statistics.
Students will track scores, calculate averages, graph player performance, and more — turning math class into a personally meaningful and engaging experience.
Grant-Supported Research (Pending)
Seascape Academies is currently pursuing a research grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to explore how AI can enhance learning outcomes for Autistic students.
If awarded, this funding would help us:
Create a “living lab” model to compare traditional and AI-supported instruction
Provide students with calming tools, personalized prompts, and adaptive learning platforms
Share research insights with the wider education community
Seascape will integrate carefully selected AI-powered tools into daily instruction, including:
Squirrel AI – adaptive learning in math and reading
Inner Explorer + AI prompts – for mindfulness and emotional regulation
AI-generated social stories and communication scripts – to support peer interaction
These tools allow us to personalize instruction, support self-regulation, and foster social engagement — all key goals in our research-driven approach.
