A year-long partnership, from vision to launch and beyond.
You bring the calling. We bring everything else it takes to turn it into a real, enrolled, operating school. The research, the brand, the website, the enrollment, the legal groundwork, the curriculum, the coaching. Built with you, beside you, for a full year.
Most founders don't quit because the dream was wrong. They quit because they didn't know what they didn't know. You won't be alone in any of it.— Dennita Miskimen, Founder
The Mastermind is the one place where we don't hand you tools and wish you luck. We build your school with you, stage by stage, until the doors are open and the seats are full.
Starting a school is a hundred jobs wearing one hat. Feasibility. Financials. Legal structure. Branding. A website. Enrollment. Curriculum. Hiring. Advertising. Most founders try to carry all of it at once, and the weight is exactly what stops them.
In the Mastermind, that weight becomes ours. You stay focused on your community and your calling. We carry the rest. For a full year, Dennita and her team are in it with you. On the calls, in the documents, through every decision, through the day your doors open and beyond. Some founders move fast and have their first day of school in a single season. Others take their time. The program meets you where you are. And when the year ends, ongoing support keeps you connected for as long as you need.
Every system in the network, delivered and customized for your school across the year.
Market viability, demographics, competitor landscape, and the tuition structure that makes your school profitable. Built around your specific city, not a template.
Entity setup guidance, insurance checklist, state-specific requirements, and the policies that make your school real on paper.
Logo, color palette, messaging framework, and brand voice. A professional identity from day one.
A complete school website with hosting and revisions for a full year. Parents find a real school with a real presence.
The complete playbook, research kit, copy kit, and tracking forms. Built around your city and ready to fill seats.
A direct line between your weekly cohort calls. Bring her the questions that come up day to day, not only when the cohort is scheduled.
Our DEN Phonics Program, daily schedule templates, subject integration, and faith integration. We help you build the academic plan around your school's needs, not hand you a template and walk away.
Job descriptions, applications, employment contracts, interview guides, onboarding checklists, and culture training. We teach you what to look for in a teacher and what to steer clear of.
Direct, personal guidance from someone who has built this from nothing. Through every stage of your launch.
A room of founders building alongside you. Momentum, accountability, and answers, every single week.
Welcome packets, onboarding communication, and a parent handbook framework so families feel cared for from the start.
The pieces most founders drop without knowing they dropped them. If it stands between you and open doors, we handle it.
Ten founders are opening Mastermind schools this fall. Here are a few of them.
Dinwiddie, Virginia
Where it all started. Dennita left the public school system after 24 years, began with 15 children in a church down the road, proved the model, then built her own schoolhouse on her farm. Today: 40 students, kindergarteners reading 75 words per minute, and a second building going up next door.
It's the proof behind everything the Mastermind delivers — a real school, full, with a waiting list.
…and more across the network, opening their doors this year.
The Mastermind is a true partnership, so we take founders by application. Tell us about your vision. Dennita reviews every application personally.

The change starts with you. And it starts with one step.
Right now, that step is simple: follow along. Every new follower grows the story that opens the next school's doors — more reach, more trust, more families who believe this is possible. Your follow genuinely helps us build schools.
