The Microschool Starter Kit

Practical Worksheets, Forms & Templates for Starting Your Microschool

Ready to turn your dream of starting a microschool into a real, organized plan?

The Microschool Starter Kit is a practical, step-by-step resource designed to help aspiring microschool founders move from an idea to opening their doors with confidence.

Created by April Lilly, M.Ed., M.A., educator and founder/director of LELA Academy, this 44-page digital kit is based on real-world experience building and operating a microschool.

Rather than simply telling you what to do, this kit gives you worksheets, checklists, forms, templates, planning tools, and real-world examples you can actually use.

Inside the Starter Kit

You'll work through 9 practical startup phases, including:

• Defining your vision and identifying the need
• Establishing your business and location
• Creating a financial and tuition plan
• Building your academic program
• Preparing your school and team
• Developing policies, forms, and family agreements
• Marketing your microschool
• Interviewing, enrolling, and welcoming students
• Preparing for opening day and your first 30 days

You'll also receive practical tools including a Financial Planning & Break-Even Worksheet, Microschool Message & Marketing Plan, Parent & Student Good-Fit Interview, enrollment forms, student learning and safety plans, progress trackers, attendance records, communication logs, staff agreement, welcome letters, policy templates, and more.

The kit also includes a real-world LELA Academy handbook example to show you how many of these pieces can come together in an operating microschool.

Who Is This For?

Perfect for teachers, parents, tutors, education professionals, and entrepreneurs who are considering starting a microschool but aren't sure how to organize all the pieces.

You don't have to figure everything out from scratch.
