Nonprofit or For-Profit? What Every Microschool Founder Needs to Know

Before you file a single piece of paperwork or enroll your first student, there’s one crucial decision that could make or break your school: your legal structure. In this essential episode of WISE and Otherwise, education leaders Becky Abrams Wilmoth and Allison Weide break down everything microschool founders need to understand about forming a nonprofit, choosing a board, and staying legally compliant with IRS regulations. From homeschool co-ops and hybrid models to full-time academies, they share what works, what fails, and what might get you in serious trouble if you're not careful. 🎙️ In this episode: – The difference between nonprofit and for-profit status (and what founders often misunderstand) – Why “keeping it simple” can backfire legally – The risks of collecting tuition under the wrong status – How Becky grew from field trips to a thriving 300-student nonprofit – What every founder should know about bylaws, boards, and parent volunteers – The importance of clear separation between church, school, and homeschool group 💡 Want the slides from this session?
