Vision

Open Path Academy envisions a world where every child feels safe, seen, and confident in their ability to build a better future for themselves and their community. We embrace each student as an individual, help them discover their unique gifts, and guide them along a clear path to success.

Our vision is to nurture strong communicators and courageous leaders in a positive, supportive environment where students feel heard, respected, and equipped to overcome both personal and academic challenges.

Mission Statement

Open Path Academy’s mission is to partner with families to provide a safe, calm, and nurturing microschool where students strengthen their reading, writing, and math skills while exploring hands-on STEAM, technology, and entrepreneurship.

Through small classes, personalized support, and real-world projects, we help students catch up academically, grow in confidence and character, and build the college, career, and life skills they need to thrive.

Who We Are

Open Path Academy is a small, student-centered microschool that blends strong core academics with engaging, project-based STEAM learning. We serve families who want a peaceful, structured environment where their child is known, supported, and challenged at the right level.

Our learning community is designed for students who may need to close academic gaps, crave more hands-on learning, or need a calmer, more personalized alternative to traditional school.

What We Do

Rooted in holistic education, our programs integrate:

Reading, writing, and English/Language Arts to build strong communication and critical thinking skills.

Math that connects to real-life problem-solving and future career paths.

STEAM and technology through coding, robotics, and digital projects that keep students engaged and curious.

Leadership development and public speaking so students learn to communicate clearly, advocate for themselves, and work well with others.

Students take part in community- and interest-based projects that spark their imagination and help them practice leadership, responsibility, and teamwork.

Focus on Real-World Readiness

We are committed to preparing students for life beyond the classroom, with a strong emphasis on:

✅ College readiness – building the study habits, academic foundation, and confidence students need to succeed in higher education.

✅ Career readiness – exploring real-world technology, workplace skills, and meaningful career pathways.

✅ Entrepreneurship – giving students opportunities to think like problem-solvers and innovators, whether they are launching a small business idea or leading a project.

Whether a student is exploring a passion for technology, rebuilding their confidence in academics, or learning how to collaborate and lead, Open Path Academy equips them with practical skills they can use now and in the future.

Our Commitment

Launching in Fall 2026, Open Path Academy is a secular microschool focused on holistic STEAM education that is fully integrated into core subjects and connected to the real world. We partner closely with families and community organizations to make sure every child has a clear, attainable path forward.

Students do not learn in isolation; they discover how their schoolwork connects to real careers, community needs, and their own goals.

At Open Path Academy, students don’t just learn — they lead, create, and grow into confident changemakers in their families, communities, and future workplaces.
