If you're reading this, you probably already felt it — that Live2Create isn't like other schools. You're right. And we don't say that to be impressive. We say it because it matters for your decision.
This guide exists because we believe informed families make the best partners. We want you to know exactly what we're building, what we'll ask of your student, and what you can expect from us in return. No surprises.
Live2Create Leadership Academy is a faith-centered, studio-based microschool launching Fall 2026 in Metro Atlanta. We serve students in Grades 6 and 9 — a founding cohort of 12 to 20 young leaders ready to do something different. Every student here will be known by name, coached toward their purpose, and challenged to build something real.
We don't teach at students. We build with them. We don't rank them against each other. We walk alongside them. And we never let them forget that who they are is more important than any grade they could earn.
If that resonates — this guide is for you.
Here's what that actually means — side by side with what most families are used to.
