Microschool Founder

Joybird’s Leadership Academy was founded by educators and literacy advocates, Joyce R. Caraway, M.A. and Jessica Pope, M.Ed., who bring years of classroom experience, instructional leadership, and a deep commitment to student-centered learning.
With backgrounds spanning literacy development, curriculum design, and student support, we’ve spent our careers working with diverse learners and families. We have seen firsthand what works, what’s missing, and what children truly need to thrive.
We believe children learn best when education feels purposeful and personal. Our mission is rooted in developing confident readers, thoughtful leaders, and curious learners by creating learning experiences that honor each child’s strengths, voice, and potential.
