School Development Activities
The prospective school is in the pre-charter application phase. At this time, the school development team is collecting input from prospective students and their families, community leaders, educational entities, local businesses, and experts; interviewing prospective, new development team members; researching funding sources; creating a non-profit corporation; setting up a temporary office; and communicating with the State Public Charter School Commission. If you or someone you know would like a development team member to speak to your group, club, or association about the prospective new charter school, please contact the Development Team through this blog or directly at NewHawaiiCharterSchool@gmail.com. Mahalo!
