Confidence and purpose in learning

At Journey Microschool, we believe education should empower students. We focus on building confidence and a sense of purpose in learning, so every child feels capable, motivated, and engaged. It's more than just completing assignments; it's about understanding the why, connecting with peers, and developing lifelong skills. Journey Microschool will open in July 2026 with a full curriculum option for students ages 10-18.

Is journey microschool right for your child?

We offer a unique learning environment for students who don’t fit the “one-size-fits-all” approach of public school but want something different than traditional homeschooling. Our program blends structured curriculum, hands-on projects, and small-group support to foster autonomy, engagement, and meaningful ownership of learning. Students don’t just meet requirements—they grow, thrive, and develop a passion for learning while building the skills to shape their own futures.

Inclusive

Every student is welcomed and valued. We celebrate different strengths, learning styles, and interests, creating a supportive environment where all students can participate, contribute, and succeed.

Collaborative

Students learn and grow together through hands-on projects, group problem-solving, and shared experiences that build teamwork, communication, and a sense of community.

Flexible

Our programs adapt to each student’s pace, interests, and learning style, offering pathways that meet families where they are while supporting growth and engagement.

The journey microschool difference

Our hands-on, project-based approach emphasizes engagement, autonomy, community, and purposeful learning, fostering confidence, practical skills, and a growth mindset.

Why journey microschool?

Many students in public schools or traditional homeschooling miss out on personalized attention, hands-on learning, and meaningful peer interaction. At Journey Microschool, we provide a small-group, multi-grade environment where each student receives guidance, engagement, and opportunities to take ownership of their learning. Our approach combines structured curriculum, project-based enrichment, and supportive collaboration, helping students build confidence, critical thinking skills, and a genuine love of learning that they often don’t get elsewhere
