About Bluum

We believe that school choice helps families, children and educators achieve more and do better.

Bluum works to seek out, vet and support high-performing school models that are committed and capable of expanding their efforts in Idaho. These innovative school models include current Idaho-based public charter schools, private schools and innovative district schools that have proven themselves academically and operationally, have established student wait lists, and demonstrate excellence in their performance. We also work to recruit top charter management organizations to Idaho, especially those committed to serving minority and at-risk students. Bluum will provide support to school district improvement efforts that offer the possibility of transformative change for how learning and instruction are made available to students.

Bluum is providing financial management support to partner charter schools. Our team can help evaluate the business of running a school by reviewing financial infrastructure and identifying areas of strength and areas for improvement all while freeing school leaders to focus on their mission – educating kids. Bluum offers financial reporting, forecasting and analysis, compliance reporting, accounting services, governance training and more.

Bluum is quickly becoming a go-to resource on education research and innovation. Specifically what’s working, what’s not and how can Idaho become a national leader in improving its educational outcomes.

Bluum offers a competitive fellowship opportunity in partnership with the Knowledge is Power Program (KIPP) that provides educational leaders with the advanced leadership training and local expertise needed to launch a successful school. Idaho New School Fellows are empowered to plan, develop and launch a high-performing public school in an underserved Idaho community. New School Fellows are expected to launch gap-closing schools in Idaho’s most underserved communities, and will receive grant support during their start-up phase.
