Start a Microschool Pilot

Washington now has clear evidence—and a responsibility—to address a youth mental health crisis that is widespread, measurable, and preventable. The research is unequivocal: student well-being, engagement, and outcomes are shaped by how school is designed.

The Washington Public Microschool Collaborative partners with districts to implement science-aligned, student-centered microschools inside existing public schools—using current buildings, staffing, and funding streams. This is not a separate system, but a practical redesign that works within yours.

If you are a superintendent or board director responsible for improving student outcomes while strengthening enrollment, engagement, and long-term sustainability, we invite you to connect.

Our conversations are confidential, practical, and grounded in both research and real implementation. Together, we can:

Clarify what the latest evidence means for your district’s current model and student outcomes
Explore how science-aligned microschools can operate within your existing system
Consider what a pilot could look like in your community, at a pace aligned with your leadership and governance

There is no obligation beyond an initial conversation.

Aligning Public Education with How Children Actually Learn

Student well-being is not separate from how school is designed—it reflects it.

There is a better way forward.

The Washington Public Microschool Collaborative and the Washington Youth Mental Health & Public School Promise Initiative—projects of the Center for Inspired Learning—are working to redesign public education around what research and practice show young people need to thrive.
