Inner Fire is a microschool for gifted students in grades K-5. If you’re looking for a microschool in San Francisco, we encourage you to reach out to us.

We take only 8 students per class and individually tailor our courses to fit each learner’s ability and interest, so it’s easy to be fully engaged. We offer a full curriculum for gifted students, personalized to each learner’s level and interest.

We believe kids can achieve far more than the curriculum standards. Our students are guided to continuously stretch their potential based on ability, not age or grade. On top of core classes, we also offer coding, Mandarin, chess, and meditation practice.

    Our kids (6 and 9 years old) loved the school. They are both gifted and Inner Fire was the first school ever that they actually wanted to go to every day.

    The combination of individualized pacing and group work has been a great mix for our son. The school really meets kids where they are, getting to know them and support them as individuals while being part of a true community.
