We’re honored to be part of a national movement expanding access to classical Christian education in under-resourced urban communities. Through collaboration with school founders, affiliates, generous sponsors, and aligned partners, we are making a lasting impact—together.
Founder Schools
These are schools that have completed our Six-Step Founder Program and launched thriving classical Christian schools in cities across the country.
Each School Below Reflects a Leap of Faith—and a Proven Process

These schools received strategic support from Spreading Hope Network outside of the full Founder Program and share a deep alignment with our mission and values.

What Edu-preneurs Are Saying
“If it weren’t for our visit to Hope Academy and all the coaching we received from Spreading Hope Network, we may never have had the confidence to follow God’s lead in doing the crazy work of starting a school. The Lord provided abundantly, and we launched in 2019 with grades K-2. Today, we serve nearly 100 students in grades K-6.”
Spreading Hope’s assistance with fundraising, communication planning & infrastructure, access to Hope’s documents and model, as well as their prayer and encouragement – all of it helped Ignite Classical start well.
