Our Studios
Learners are grouped by stage, not grade, so younger heroes learn from older ones and everyone moves at their own pace.
Spark · Ages 4–6 (PreK–1st)
Young learners begin their journey with hands-on, age-appropriate quests. Play, Socratic discussion and team challenges build early reading and math skills, plus the habits of cooperating, self-regulating and contributing to a group.
Discovery · Ages 7–11 (Grades 2–5)
Learners build strong foundations in reading, writing and math with self-paced tools and guide check-ins. Afternoons are for quests: building, experimenting, creating and presenting. They learn to set goals, manage their time and solve their own problems.
Explorer · Ages 12–14 (Grades 6–8)
Learners take on harder challenges, deeper Socratic discussions and longer projects. They run studio government, mentor younger learners and start exploring what they love. Many begin their first real-world ventures here.
Launchpad · Ages 15–18 (Grades 9–12)
Launchpad prepares teens for life after school by having them do real work now. Learners build a portfolio through apprenticeships, entrepreneurial projects and advanced coursework. Because we are fully accredited, Launchpad learners receive accredited transcripts. Launchpad will also be accredited, and we plan to join the Mastery Transcript Consortium so our diploma is accepted by colleges and universities.
