NMC sector analysis · May 2026 ↗Of operating microschools surveyed in the same study, 61% reported using project-based learning.
NMC sector analysis · May 2026 ↗Of 291 parents and caregivers surveyed at 36 schools, 83% named it as a reason for choosing their child’s microschool.
Daniel Hamlin / NMC · September 2026 ↗These findings describe the study participants, not all microschools. The sector report does not disclose subgroup sample sizes; the parent survey was voluntary and self-selected. This research is separate from our team’s work and member experiences.
