**WorldSchool - Where the World Is Your Classroom.** What if education could be built around the unique needs, interests, passions, and potential of every child? We call this **Designer Education** WorldSchool brings families, teachers, educators, mentors, and communities together to create personalized learning experiences - at home, in your neighborhood, and around the world. **DISCOVER. CONNECT. SCHEDULE. HOST. LEARN.** Whether you're homeschooling, worldschooling, exploring alternative education, looking for extracurricular experiences, or simply searching for more meaningful ways for your family to learn, WorldSchool gives you the tools to create an educational ecosystem that works for you. **DISCOVER** Explore classes, experiences, activities, resources, educators, hosts, and like-minded families in your local community or while traveling. Turn your neighborhood—and the world around you—into a classroom. **CONNECT** Find families, teachers, mentors, facilitators, and communities who share your interests and educational values. WorldSchool helps transform learning from something we do alone into something we can build together. **SCHEDULE** Create and discover learning opportunities ranging from intimate classes and private instruction to group activities, meetups, field trips, playdates, workshops, excursions, and unique real-world experiences. Learning can happen anywhere. **HOST** Everyone has something to teach. Parents, teachers, professionals, artists, craftspeople, mentors, community organizations, and passionate individuals can share their knowledge, talents, skills, time, and experiences with others. Create an offering, become a host, and help bring learning to life in your community. **MANAGE** Bring your family's learning world together in one place. Organize your educational experiences, activities, bookings, connections, and extracurricular opportunities through one cohesive platform designed around families and communities. **EDUCATION AS INDIVIDUAL AS YOUR CHILD** No two children learn exactly the same way. WorldSchool was created to help families move beyond a one-size-fits-all approach and build learning environments around the individual child—their curiosity, interests, abilities, pace, community, and goals. Our community welcomes families exploring many educational philosophies and approaches, including: Homeschooling • Worldschooling • Unschooling • Free Schooling • Deschooling • Forest School • Sudbury • Waldorf • Montessori • Reggio Emilia • Charlotte Mason • Self-Directed Learning • Experiential Learning • and more. **EVERYONE CAN BE BOTH A TEACHER AND A STUDENT** We believe some of the world's greatest educational resources already exist within our own families and communities. A parent can teach. A teacher can learn. A child can inspire. A neighbor can mentor. A local business can become a classroom. A passion can become an experience worth sharing. WorldSchool helps unlock those resources by giving people a place to connect, contribute, learn from one another, and create opportunities together. **RETURNING THE POWER OF LEARNING TO PEOPLE** WorldSchool is being built by parents, teachers, educators, and families who believe education should be more personal, connected, accessible, and rooted in the real world. Our vision is an open, community-driven global learning ecosystem where families have the tools and freedom to create educational experiences that reflect the needs of their children and communities. Instead of asking every child to fit into the same educational system, we want to give families and educators the tools to build learning around the child. Because education doesn't belong within four walls. The forest can be a classroom. The kitchen can be a classroom. A farm, museum, workshop, business, neighborhood, or new country can be a classroom. **The world is our classroom.**
