Page 4 Bring a school

Own it. Share it. Or invite us in.

School choice needs real schools to choose. There are three ways to get one on the ground. You can run it as your business. You can own it with your neighbors. Or you can point to a community that needs one, and Cluster comes to start it.

Path 1

You own it.

You run the school like a small shop. You follow Cluster’s rules. You hire the one paid teacher. You keep the doors open and the books where people can see them. The work is yours. The chance to earn from running it is yours.

Path 2

Own it with your neighbors.

A few families start the school together. You are co-owners. You share the cost, the say, and the parent days. It is like opening a shop with the people on your street. No one person has to carry the whole thing.

Path 3

Ask Cluster to build it.

You know a town, a block, or a group of families who would grow with a school like this. You tell us. Cluster comes and starts the school there. You do not have to be the owner. You help open the door.

Same bones Whoever starts it

Every path uses the same school.

Owner, neighbor group, or a school Cluster builds: the room still looks like this.

About twelve children

in the building, known by name.

One paid teacher

there every day, with parents helping one day a week.

The shared recipe

so the school can ask the state and the country for education money the right way.

A community Path 3, up close

Find the place. We will come start it.

Some neighborhoods do not need another owner. They need a school. If you can name that place — a town, a block, a circle of families — Cluster can come and build the school with them. You show us the need. We bring the rules, the teacher plan, the helper, and the steps for asking for education money.

Talk Tell us which path

Come sit with us.

Say which door is yours. A seat for your child. A school you want to own. A school you want to own with neighbors. Or a community where Cluster should come and build.

  • I want a seat for my child.
  • I want to run a school as my business.
  • I want to start one with my neighbors, as co-owners.
  • I know a community that needs this, and I want Cluster to come build it.
