According to the National Microschooling Center (https://microschoolingcenter.org/), a microschool has anywhere from 5-150 students. The center completes an annual sector analysis which shares common trends, similarities and differences of this amazing movement. We are excited around the trends of self directed and experiential learning, and of course how students are all very well known in these small and intimate learning environments.
An "affiliate" microschool is a modern twist on the franchise model. We support you with the brand, business elements, MBS curriculum, community, and leadership development and you get to be your own founder and operator of a microschool. You are not an employee of our organization, but you do agree to certain commitments and we provide many of the benefits that keep people from opening or operating a successful microschool in the long term.
We believe that parents and community members are an integral part fo the microschool movement. It takes a village and parents, caregivers, grandparents, and many other family members should be involved in a young person's growth and development. Our program supports you in this journey too. Reach out and we can share more!
Unlike other affiliate programs who charge upwards of $25,000 to do a program like this, we offer it for only $5,000 for the first year. Our incubator program is valued at $50,000, but we keep the cost down to $5,000 to ensure that it is accessible to more people. In in exchange for all of the benefits we offer, a percentage of your microschool's tuition goes to the network after opening.
We are actively recruiting our cohort that will launch in the fall. The program starts the fall before the microschool opens. For example, if you are launching your microschool in Fall 2026, you would start the cohort program in Fall 2025.
