Welcome to Bloom Academy

YOUR PATH. YOUR PACE. YOUR PLACE.

Bloom Academy is a private school in Lexington, Kentucky, serving students in Kindergarten through 8th grade.

Through a personalized, mastery-based approach to academics, rich experiential learning opportunities, and the power of play, we help every child grow academically, socially, and emotionally.

Why Families Choose Bloom Academy?

At Bloom, we understand that each child is unique and arrives with their own strengths, curiosities, questions, and pace of development. Our personalized approach is designed to respond to what students truly need.

Because teachers have the space to genuinely know their students, they can nurture confidence, curiosity, and independence alongside academic growth. Students are not simply moving through a curriculum; they are building the habits of thinking, creating, collaborating, and reflecting that support lifelong learning.

Our role is to cultivate the conditions where each learner can take root, stretch toward new possibilities, and truly bloom.

Our Mission

Bloom Academy empowers Kindergarten through 8th grade grade students to reach their full potential through mastery-based and experiential learning in a supportive, customized environment.

Our Vision

We envision a school where education is not one-size-fits-all but instead adapts to each student’s unique strengths, interests, and needs. By providing mastery-based, experiential learning, creative and life skills development, and a student-centered approach, we prepare students to become engaged, capable, and compassionate citizens of tomorrow.

Let’s Reimagine Education,Together

Choosing the right school is an important decision. We’re here to help you explore whether Bloom is the right fit for your child and family.

Meet the Founders of Bloom Academy

Bloom Academy was co-founded by Dr. Angie Madden, founder of Lexington's The Bright Spot, and Dr. Kim Schroeder, two individuals who share a deep belief that children learn best when education is personalized, engaging, and grounded in meaningful relationships. Together, they created Bloom to provide a learning environment where students feel supported, challenged, and inspired to grow.
