Start Up Investment

This chart outlines some key areas of the initial and ongoing investment for a Pineapple School franchise.

What Is Included In Pineapple School Ownership

Proven Business Model

You are not starting from zero. You are stepping into a business model stress-tested across 16 years and multiple campuses, with the systems, benchmarks, and playbook already in place. Every decision, from enrollment strategy to parent communication, is shaped by real experience running Pineapple Schools, so you can build with confidence, not guesswork.

Build-Out Support

From site planning through construction, furniture sourcing, and final classroom setup, our team provides close, practical guidance to help you create a thoughtfully designed school that reflects the Pineapple standard: welcoming, functional, and built for children, families, and connection.

Comprehensive Training

As opening day approaches, you will participate in an in-depth onboarding program covering curriculum, operations, staffing, culture, and classroom setup. Training doesn't stop at opening; it continues as you grow, with ongoing sessions to keep your team sharp. The goal: prepared and confident at every stage.

Proprietary Curriculum

Our proprietary 51-week curriculum is provided for every age group. Developed and refined over 16 years, it combines age-appropriate, hands-on learning with engaging activities rooted in Latin American culture and is ready to implement from day one.

Marketing Support

You will have access to the marketing strategies, campaigns, and advertising assets we use to build awareness and connect with families. Rather than starting from scratch, you can draw from approaches that have been developed and refined through years of operating Pineapple School campuses.

Ongoing Guidance

Opening your doors is only the beginning. You will receive continued mentoring, operational support, and evolving programming resources to help you strengthen and grow your school. You are building your own school, but you are never building it alone.

Culture Coaching

The strongest schools are shaped by more than curriculum and operations alone. We help you build a school culture that makes The Pineapple School feel different: warm, connected, authentic, and rooted in comunidad from day one.
