About Us
Beyond the Pandemic, Our Hope is Lifted
I am incredibly proud of the mission and vision of Scholarmade, and I would like to take this opportunity to celebrate our team of dedicated educators and staff who are wholeheartedly committed to providing an exceptional educational experience for All students All of the Time. At Scholarmade, we firmly believe that every child deserves access to a high-quality education, irrespective of their background or circumstances.
Scholarmade was established in 2018 as a result of grassroots efforts from the community and a small group of school designers who shared a common vision. However, just one year into our operation, we were faced with unprecedented challenges due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. As a result, we had to swiftly modify our educational model to ensure the safety and well-being of our students and staff.
Despite the daily challenges we encountered in achieving our mission during our first charter cycle, we remain resilient and determined to meet the needs of every scholar at Scholarmade, every single day. We are unwavering in our commitment to overcome these obstacles and improve the academic outcomes and overall experiences for our students. Everything about Scholarmade is intentional and personal.
Looking beyond the pandemic, our goals at Scholarmade remain steadfast. This place will always matter. We aspire to create a joyful and creative learning environment where all students can thrive and reach their full potential, regardless of where they are learning from. We recognize that strong partnerships with families, community organizations, and local businesses are vital to the success of our students. We place great value on collaboration and communication and are fully committed to working closely with all stakeholders to achieve our shared goals.
We are humbled and grateful to the families who choose Scholarmade and entrust us with the education of their children. We understand the multitude of amazing educational options available in Little Rock and Pulaski County, and we appreciate the confidence you have placed in us.
I strongly encourage you to get involved in our schools and help us create a brighter future for our children. Together, we can make a significant difference in their lives. We are rooting for ALL Children Everywhere.
Warm regards,

OUR courageous
TWO-PART MISSION
We prepare our scholars through Emotional Intelligence and Personalized Learning to be self-confident, intellectually inquisitive, emotionally intelligent, and academically accomplished beings. Our Scholars will become leaders and problem-solvers who will improve conditions wherever they choose to work and live.
Opportunity gaps will be closed as all scholars achieve academically at high levels. Our mission is meant to inspire and uplift everyone involved in the work of developing young people. It is a conscious effort to prepare young people to serve and care about their communities, to give them the skills necessary to be successful in high school and college, and prepare them to be change agents, movement leaders, and problem solvers within those communities.
Families and communities are essential forms of support that ensure schools not only help students to achieve academically, but also ensure that the quality of life for children living in poverty is improved. Our collective strength will reach more students to transfer learning and leadership as we all pursue achievement.
