Get Schooled: Episode 26 - Lessons from Our First Microschool Conference

Join us for an exciting episode where we share our experiences from our recent journey to the world of micro-schools. We attended our first-ever micro-school conference in Kansas City, where we connected with fellow educators and leaders in the micro-school movement. Discover how our micro-school journey began, growing from a small group of ten students to where we are now, and hear about the insights and challenges we've faced along the way.

In this episode, we discuss the power of micro-schools, the freedom they offer in tailoring education to individual students, and the incredible growth this model has seen, especially since the onset of the pandemic. We dive into the key takeaways from the conference, including funding, curriculum, and the support micro-schools need to thrive. Also, learn about the launch of our own initiative to unite micro-schools in Missouri and build a community of educators dedicated to empowering students through alternative educational models.
