A network of public microschools wants to expand across Indiana. Is it collaborating or competing?

The Indiana Microschool Collaborative (IMC) is expanding its network of public microschools across Indiana, with Nature’s Gift microschool serving as its first site. The model combines Montessori and classical education approaches, offers flexible schedules, and collaborates with local districts like Eastern Hancock Schools. Parents report improved academic outcomes, and planned sites in Richmond and New Palestine already have waitlists.
