[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Maggie Walker Governor's School for Government and International Studies down in Richmond is the [i]perfect[/i] model for this type of program. At Maggie Walker they require 140 hours of community service, four years of one language and two years of another language (they offer 10 languages at the school), and they offer sponsored spring and summer travel abroad opportunities. Their social studies department focuses on global society and government with unique courses in those topics. I even remember one of the school board members mentioned Maggie Walker during the meeting last December when this academy was discussed. So much potential exists to create a useful academy.[/quote] Yes, and MW is a destination school for talented teachers, all while being located in a neighborhood that makes Springfield Estates look like west Springfield.[/quote]
