The Microschool Startup | Launch a 2-Hour AI School: Legal Paths, Budgets & 12-Month Roadmap (Vol 5 of 6)

From idea to opening day. An estimated 1 to 1.5 million American children now attend microschools across roughly 95,000 sites — and the two-hour AI-first engine has handed founders an academic model that once required an institution. What it has not handed them is a business. Volume 5 of The AI-First School Blueprint is that missing half.

Inside this 16-page premium volume:

• The four legal pathways (private, homeschool umbrella, learning center, charter) plus entity choice and the 12-item state compliance checklist
• Proving demand before you spend: the parent demand-interview script and the three demand gates (interest, deposits, cohort)
• The real budget at 12, 24, and 48 students — full line items, break-even tuition math, and the five-year pro forma discipline
• Tuition strategy, the ESA and school-choice funding revolution, grants, and the debt rule that keeps schools alive
• The lease playbook (zoning first, the fit-out trap, the daily-rental year-one hack) and the zero-ad-budget enrollment engine with funnel math
• First Guide hires, insurance and safeguarding architecture, and the complete twelve-month launch roadmap with go/no-go gates

For founders, teacher-entrepreneurs, and the parent who keeps being told "you should start a school."
