✨About KEA✨

What We Do: A School Like No Other

At KEA, we believe education should prepare students for life, not just tests. Every child who walks through our doors is expected to:

  • Publish a book each year 📚 → building confidence and communication skills.

  • Run a real business 💼 → learning ownership, leadership, and financial literacy.

  • Master their academics → excelling in reading, math, and beyond.

We educate the whole child — academically, socially, morally, and spiritually — preparing them to thrive in school, in business, and in life.

OUR IMPACT: PROOF THAT IT REALLY WORKS

 


In just 7 years, KEA students have:

  • Published dozens of books that showcase their voices and creativity.

  • Launched student-run businesses that generate real income.

  • Closed academic gaps and, in many cases, advanced beyond grade level.

Parents consistently tell us KEA gave their children something no other school could: confidence, vision, and a sense of purpose.

Donors and supporters see their contributions come to life in field trips, scholarships, new facilities, and community programs that make a tangible difference every day.

OUR VISION: Building a Million Dollar Legacy

KEA’s next chapter is bigger than a single campus. Our vision includes:

  • KEA University → A membership platform offering KEA’s curriculum to families, homeschoolers, and schools nationwide.

  • Next Level Entrepreneurship Community → A private membership hub for entrepreneurs and supporters to connect, learn, and grow.

  • National Expansion → Scaling KEA’s unique model so more children and families can benefit from an education rooted in authorship, ownership, and culture.

Our goal is to grow KEA into a sustainable, million-dollar institution that empowers families, transforms education, and builds wealth in communities across the nation.
