We’re a new microschool opening in August 2025, built to inspire curious, confident and culturally grounded kids who are ready to lead and make a difference in their communities.

What We Offer

At Iron Village Preparatory Academy, we believe that families deserve flexible, affirming and high-quality educational options that meet their needs and honor their values. That’s why we offer two pathways for students to thrive:

Full-Time Enrollment

Our full-time microschool program runs five days a week (Monday–Friday) with Fridays reserved for independent projects, creative exploration and personalized support. Students learn in mixed-grade classrooms through a student-led, project-based approach that integrates academic excellence, cultural celebration and real-world learning. It’s a vibrant, full-time community designed to nurture future leaders from kindergarten through 8th grade.

Hybrid Homeschool

For families who want the best of both worlds, our hybrid homeschool option offers part-time, in-person learning  to pair with families' at-home instruction. Students join our community for two or three days a week, engaging in collaborative learning, enrichment experiences and community projects—while families maintain flexibility in how and when the rest of their week is structured.
