Description
In August 2010, our new science-focused, bilingual gifted school opened its doors to eight bright-eyed, curious-minded children ages three to five--the culmination of nearly two years of research and planning. In this rousing session, learn how to successfully found a gifted school.Discuss key topics such as forming an entity, curriculum, selecting a location, marketing, admissions, teacher hiring, and fundraising. Participants leave the session prepared to assess the viability of launching a gifted school, and to begin the planning process in an effective manner. Materials include a checklist and realistic timetable for opening a new school.
No items are available for this session.
