Inner Fire Academy in San Francisco serves gifted learners from kindergarten through fifth grade. The microschool caps each class at eight students to facilitate individualized instruction tailored to specific abilities and interests. This approach allows students to progress based on capability rather than age or grade level. Beyond a customized core curriculum, the school offers specialized electives including coding, Mandarin, chess, and meditation practice for its enrolled cohort.
