At our schools we use motivation models to incentivize our students. Our EdTech is important but without a motivated student, learning is impossible. When students hit their academic goal -as set by their AI tutor, they get our school currency. Once a week they can buy items at the “Emporium” with their currency. Many people criticize our incentive model but it’s not only buying toys. Students can get rewards for doing their work in all kinds of ways. In fact, one of the most popular item to buy for our younger students is a 1-1 lunch with their Guide (teacher). Each Guide actually finds out what specifically motivates every student, so their reward and motivation system is tailored to every personality. For some students, it’s a dance break for 1 minute, for others it’s video game time during recess, or even collecting pet rocks for every lesson. Once you have a motivated student, the sky is the limit.

If only I would have known how big this mission would become… I only wish I’d started sooner!

When I was a young mom, I knew my daughter couldn’t stay in traditional school. I also knew I didn’t want to homeschool her. (Homeschool parents and teachers, you’re my heroes!!!)

My solution? Work with another incredible parent to start a school! I never in a million years would’ve dreamed it would snowball into a nationwide movement with locations opening faster than I can keep up with!

The past few years have been filled with speaking engagements, news appearances, parent meetups, student showcases, campus tours, info sessions, and so much more. To everyone who’s been following along, I’m so glad you’re here with me on this journey- let’s keep going!! 🚀

When I say “we teach life skills” that means even when it’s difficult. “Public speaking” means some kids crash out their first try at a speech. “Financial literacy” means some kids lose all their investments. “Doing hard things” means sometimes there are tears. The key is the Adult Guides. Always there encouraging, supporting, and being the consistent, kind, yet strong voice to get them through the tough times.

We don’t do busy work, homework, or class-paced learning. As a result, we spend afternoons working on these “school projects” - which are actually legitimate business ventures that students can (and have in past graduating classes) snowball into real world occupations.

Our goal is to equip kids for real life. How to apply for grants, raise funds, make connections, work with developers and manufacturers, manage teams, set audacious goals, manage money, and so much more.

By focusing on a “Masterpiece Project” every afternoon of every day, our high school students get a massive leg up on the skills they’ll need as professional adults, and can choose a traditional or non-traditional path as graduates with tools to succeed either way.

We want our students to be creators, not consumers. What do you think?
