Jake at Lakeside Insurance is a rockstar in CO. He is ready to assemble a package that works for your school and ensures you have all the coverage you need. (Top Tip: At a minimum, you want General Liability, Workman's Comp, and DNO insurance if you are a non-profit.)

**Lakeside operates in other states as well; check out its website for a list of those states.
We've never been large enough to hire a dedicated nurse. Additionally, we are out of the building so often on field trips; we want our teachers to be able to handle medical needs wherever they are. Tender Care Consultants allows us to enroll kids with various medical needs and meet those needs with fidelity. We delegate our entire staff under a nurse consultant to meet the needs of our student population each year.
In the early days of Anastasis, we had an internal substitute list...which generally meant that I or one of our part-time teachers was covering a class. It is always stressful when someone is gone...filling in this way made it ten times more stressful for everyone. Hello Subs was a game changer. Bonus points for introducing us to some of our favorite people. If you are in Colorado, do not pass go... contact these folks immediately!
Jarrod at Intellicents is the literal best. So much of this company aligns with our vision of a better world. They will also partner with you on health insurance, retirement, and wealth management. Unlike most advisory firms that work with the 1%... they work with us, the 99%. If you've been at this long, you know that is hard to find!

ACE Scholarships has a commitment to every child receiving a quality education. As a tuition-based partner school, you can offer families the ability to become an ACE scholar and open up enrollment to a wider socioeconomic demographic. At Anastasis, we always had our own financial-aid/scholarship fund but appreciated the partnership with ACE to reach more students.
**ACE works in some states in addition to Colorado. Take a look at the website to see where.
If you are looking to add a Home School Enrichment option to your school, you must reach out to Education reEnvisioned, the model they've structured is brilliant.
