Every alternative educator in Gilbert is already an entrepreneur. Every parent choosing a path is building something too. Skool Gilbert brings educators, entrepreneurs and parents into one room, as a community, so no one does this work alone.
No booths, no pitch decks, no fee. Sammy shares the Skool Gilbert idea and where the map is going, everyone gets sixty seconds to say who they are and who they're for, and then the evening is yours to talk.
Meet the other people doing what you do in Gilbert, many for the first time. Get listed on the map (free, always), and find the partners, space and referrals you've been missing.
You know how to build something from nothing. Come hear how that flows into our kids, and how your experience can show up in a classroom, a mentorship or a table at the Kids CEO Fair.
Hear straight from the educators and see every option in town in one night. Come with your questions and your kid's story. You belong in this conversation.
Desert Monks Brewing is a Gilbert small business opening its doors to us. There's no charge to attend; please order a drink to say thanks. House-made sodas, kombucha and other non-alcoholic options are on tap alongside the beer.
Gilbert's business owners and alternative educators, the people who already build things, step into our kids' learning.
Kids learn by starting something real: an idea, a budget, a price, a brand, a pitch. That's what Lemonade Standards teaches.
On January 30, those kids run the market themselves. The circle closes, and Gilbert gets to watch.
During National School Choice Week. Every kind of program in Gilbert in one place, each with its own area, plus a build area, a stage, and a market run entirely by kids selling what they made.
Meet the people who would teach your kids, watch student performances, and shop a market where every seller is under fifteen.
A space to show families what you do, a stage slot for your students, and a listing on the fair map. Inquire for details.
Finish a Lemonade Standards course this winter and the fair is your launch day: your table, your products, your pitch on the stage.
Sponsorships and community tables are available for Gilbert businesses that want to stand behind our kids. Everything is fair-value marketing, documented in writing, nothing tied to transactions. Ask Sammy for the proposal.
Choirs, dance, robotics demos, theatre, and the kids' sixty-second pitches. Stage slots go to participating programs first, then to any Gilbert school that asks.
Lemonade Standards is Sammy's entrepreneurship course for kids: idea, costs, price, profit, brand, pitch, ending with a real table at the Kids CEO Fair. Classes begin this winter.
Six weeks from idea to first sale, taught in small groups. Your child leaves with a product, a price and a pitch, and a spot at the fair.
Bring Lemonade Standards to your students this winter, or talk with Sammy if you're thinking about starting a micro school of your own. She's lived it.
RSVP for November 11, ask about the Kids CEO Fair, or reach Lemonade Standards. Sammy replies personally.
No. Come as you are. Desert Monks is hosting us, so please order a drink, alcoholic or not, to thank them.
Yes. If you're a parent, a business owner, or just someone who cares how Gilbert's kids learn, this night is for you. Nobody is turned away.
This one's an evening for the grown-ups to talk. January 30 is the kids' day.
Ask. Program areas, kids' tables, Lemonade Standards classes and sponsorships each work a little differently, and Sammy would rather talk it through with you than post a price list. Use the form above or text her.
