Meet the founder
After considering traditional and alternative Kindergarten options for my son, I realized there was an opportunity to create a microschool where kids learn core academics at their own level and pace, and life skills that build real-world confidence and independence.
So I invited experienced educators (including Esther Wojcicki, educator and author of How to Raise Successful People), a community of families, and seasoned edtech entrepreneurs — the content providers behind AI tutors used by millions of students — to co-build the school we've all been dreaming of.
The first one opens in Missoula, where my kids are growing up as second generation Montanans. We'd love for your family to be part of it.
— Jennie Yang
When parents and educators come together to design a school around how kids actually learn — curious, hands-on, outside, alongside trusted adults — you get a generation that's confident, kind, and ready for whatever comes next.
