Start a Microschool
At the STEAM Academy, we believe every child deserves a safe, nurturing, and unique learning environment where their strengths and learning styles are celebrated. Our mission is to redefine education through the power of micro-schools, offering personalized, flexible, and project-based learning that empowers children to thrive at their own pace. Rooted in a passion for creating inclusive spaces, we partner with families, educators, and communities to cultivate curiosity, critical thinking, and a lifelong love of learning. By prioritizing small class sizes and meaningful connections, we aim to inspire confident, capable learners who are prepared for success in academics, life, and beyond.
About Microschools:
A micro-school is a small, personalized learning environment that serves a limited number of students, usually fewer than 15. It offers a flexible, individualized approach to education that blends aspects of traditional schooling and homeschooling. Students learn at their own pace, with a strong focus on project-based learning, and are guided by a facilitator rather than a traditional teacher. Microschools can be run by retired teachers, parents, or anyone passionate about creating safe, unique learning spaces for children of all learning styles. Depending on local regulations, they can operate in homes, community centers, rented spaces, or even public spaces. Microschools can function as private schools, learning hubs for homeschoolers, or other creative learning models..
