Frequently Asked Questions
Why start with Black boys in Grades 2–3?
Research shows Black boys are the most suspended, mislabeled, and underserved group by 3rd grade. Starting here ensures we intervene before trust is lost and provide critical support during formative years.
Is BoldTrust only for boys?
No. The first microschool focuses on Black boys, but BoldTrust Junior Kindergarten (ages 4–5) serves all children. Future expansions will include more grade levels and all genders.
What is your long-term vision?
By 2035, BoldTrust Schools will expand across multiple U.S. cities, offering K–8 microschools that unite healing-centered education with future-ready learning opportunities.
