Meet Our Founder
Hi, I'm Angela Wallace, founder of FIVE MicroSchool. With 18 years of experience as a math educator and as a co-director of another innovative educational venture, I've dedicated my career to reimagining how education can better serve today’s youth. At FIVE MicroSchool, we focus on empowering young minds through a curriculum rich in hands-on learning and real-world applications. As a doctoral candidate in Educational Leadership and a homeschooling mom, I bring a personal commitment to fostering educational environments that cultivate creativity, critical thinking, and entrepreneurial skills. I'm excited to welcome you to FIVE, where we prepare students to thrive in and contribute to the world around them.
Our Beliefs
FIVE MicroSchool champions small group instruction as it provides personalized attention, tailored teaching, and deeper scholar engagement, allowing for accelerated and profound learning. In this intimate setting, our educators can fully understand and meet the unique needs of each student, surpassing the capabilities of traditional schooling methods.
At FIVE, we believe in meeting students where they are, offering instruction that matches their individual ability levels rather than strictly adhering to age or grade constraints. This tailored approach not only challenges students appropriately but also allows them to advance at their own pace, promoting personal growth and academic excellence.
Embracing a mixed-ages learning model, FIVE MicroSchool reflects the real-world environment where people of various ages interact, enhancing empathy, leadership, and collaboration among students. This setting provides rich opportunities for mentorship, and social development, and fosters a strong community spirit within the school.
FIVE MicroSchool cultivates a 'family-like' atmosphere by engaging all stakeholders—students, educators, and families—in creating a supportive and nurturing environment. This approach ensures that every member of our community feels valued, understood, and motivated to excel.
We believe that authentic learning at FIVE MicroSchool arises from hands-on experiences and real-world applications. These methods not only engage students actively but also allow them to apply academic theories in practical scenarios, developing crucial problem-solving skills that are essential for success beyond the classroom.
