A driven, dedicated, and passionate leader with 2 masters degrees in education, Nikki Duslak, CREATE’s founder and Head of School, has been dreaming about revolutionizing education for years, and now she has brought her vision to life.

Having embraced every opportunity for professional development during her career as a teacher, principal, and college level administrator, Nikki brings unparalleled knowledge and boundless tenacity to the challenges of starting and running a school. Her “relationship centered leadership” is a welcome change for this forward-thinking central Florida community who now has another option.

By starting CREATE, Nikki is pioneering the micro-school movement and lighting the way for education leaders in other communities who want better options and outcomes for students whose needs aren’t met by traditional means.
