About Spreading Hope Network
Spreading Hope Network exists to foster hope in God by igniting and sustaining a kingdom movement of urban classical Christian schools serving the youth of our nation’s cities.
Inspired by Hope Academy. Multiplied Across the Nation.
In 2017, Spreading Hope Network was born out of the remarkable story of Hope Academy in Minneapolis—a thriving, God-centered school serving students in one of the city’s most challenging neighborhoods.
What began as a single school has grown into a national movement. Today, we walk alongside founders across the country to plant and grow sustainable classical Christian schools in cities where they’re needed most.


Together with courageous school leaders, generous partners, and a growing network of educators, we are restoring education and renewing communities—one school at a time.
