School Alive is a revolutionary Christian institution serving grades PK-12, which are vertically integrated into levels 1-7. Driven by the ethos “Made Alive In Christ” and “Ignite Your Passion,” education is reimagined at the community level by combining the benefits of homeschooling and larger school settings. Founded by Dr. Graham Pierce Lyon following a spiritual awakening in 2020, it offers an alternative to conventional educational paradigms.
By synergizing Healthcare, Art, Mathematics, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Religion (HAMSTER), School Alive promotes essential 21st-century skills while grounding education in Judeo-Christian values. The “Authentic HAMSTER Education” framework stretches beyond traditional STEM, STEAM, and STREAM disciplines, embedding content into real-world contexts for a comprehensive learning experience. Coupled with the Passion Period, where students embark on Passion Projects, students can identify and exercise their individual passions.
This approach addresses the prevalent inauthentic education, which lacks trust and effectiveness. Dedicated to fostering character, virtue, and purpose, School Alive’s mission focuses on partnering with home and church to shape the future, one student at a time. With a vision of being a world leader in authentic education, School Alive guides students towards their God-given purpose, standing as an unwavering beacon in an ever-changing educational landscape. We believe that real success is being who God made you to be. Join our family and make this movement a revolution. In God We Trust!
