Amar Kumar’s Post

Last week, KaiPod Learning received the National Community Crafted Award, given to the organization that has done the most to advance new and alternative forms of education nationally. Our long-term vision is simple: we want to help create 1 million new schools in America. That will only happen if the whole sector gets stronger. That’s why we’re building the bootcamp, software platform, and support systems that can help more educators move from idea to launch, and from launch to long-term sustainability. Over the past few years, that work has started to compound. KaiPod has become the fastest-growing national microschool network, Newton has become one of the most widely used software platforms built specifically for microschools, and Catalyst has grown into the largest bootcamp for aspiring microschool founders. We still feel like we’re at the very beginning. But I’m proud of the team for pushing this work forward every day! H/T to Eric Wearne and team for this recognition.
