[quote=Anonymous]After many years in the non-profit/foundation sector, with a special focus on early childhood education and nutrition, I'm intrigued by the process of starting a charter school. My ideal would be an IB curriculum, combined with a particular focus on health, physical activity, and wellness, including teaching kids about cooking, sustainability and healthy foods (including an intensive school gardening program and farm-to-school cooperative). I know the founder of Yu-Ying (this is not about her or the school, so please refrain from side-tracking), and I know how all-consuming and difficult it can be to be a school founder. But given the massive appetite for high quality charters, as well as what I think would be an interest in this particular concept, I'd be intrigued to talk with others who might want to be involved. Do you think there would be an interest? How does one get started? Advice and feedback welcomed![/quote]
