A rapid, school-specific strategic assessment — built from 30+ data sources, delivered as a comprehensive report, and reviewed with your leadership team. The analysis a consulting firm would charge $50,000 for, delivered in days.
A comprehensive strategic assessment specific to your school, your market, and your leadership team’s questions. We build the analysis from public financial filings, government enrollment records, and proprietary market data — then walk you through the findings in a structured review session so your team leaves with clarity, not just a document.
The assessment tells a cohesive story about your school’s market position — not isolated data points, but connected analysis that builds toward the conversation your leadership team needs to have.
Population, income, housing, and school-age children trends in the ZIP codes your families come from.
Where your tuition sits relative to comparable schools — by type, grade level, and geography.
Revenue, expenses, and margin benchmarks compared to similar schools in our database.
How state-level choice programs may affect enrollment, tuition, and competition in your market.
Who you're competing with, what families in your area are looking for, and where you're positioned.
Specific, data-backed priorities tailored to your school's position — not generic advice.
A top-tier consulting firm charges $50,000–$150,000 and takes 90 days to deliver a strategic market assessment. The output is rigorous. The cost and timeline are prohibitive for most schools.
Most benchmarking in education goes the other direction: self-reported surveys with low response rates, limited to a single association’s member schools. You get national averages with no local context, and data that’s a year old by the time it reaches you.
Schoolhouse HQ is a third path. Our assessments are built from public financial filings, government enrollment records, published tuition schedules, and proprietary market data — specific to your school, your market, and your segment. Then we sit down with your team and walk through what it means.
