Join Our Founding Cohort
Mosaic opens in September 2027. Our process is designed for us to get to know your family and for you to get to know us. Together we'll work out whether Mosaic is the right fit.

Who we're looking for
We're looking for curiosity, mindset, and families ready to build something special together.
Curious, self-directed learners
Kids who want more than a traditional classroom - and ask "what if?" unprompted.
Ready for mentorship & projects
Students who'd thrive in small-group, project-based learning with real mentors.
Families seeking a personal path
Parents looking for a personalized alternative to traditional schooling.
Dedication to Growth
We look for students motivated to treat Mosaic School as a top priority by diving deeply into collaborative challenges and independent work.
Also available
Prefer to learn from home?
Mosaic also offers live, teacher-led virtual programs — the same challenge-based approach, delivered remotely.
Our process
A journey into our founding community
Our process is designed so we get to know you and see if Mosaic is the right fit.
01
Info session
~30 min
Book an info session. You hear how the day works, what the OSSD pathway looks like, and what founding-cohort admission involves.
02
Application
~15 min
A short written introduction: parent contact info, your teenager's name, and what they want from school next.
03
Student interview
~30 min
A conversation with your teenager. We are looking for someone who finishes the worksheet and asks for the harder problem, and who has built, made or organized something on their own because they wanted to.
04
Parent conversation & decision
Within ~14 days
A call with parents, then a written decision. If offered a place, a seat deposit is due within 14 days. Founding-cohort decisions for September 2027 run through June 2027.
