From Spokane Public Schools:
Through an Application for New Quality Schools, SPS is seeking motivated and targeted groups – including educators, parents, teachers, and community leaders – with the drive, experience, and commitment to start new, high-performing schools in our neighborhoods in 2015-2016 or 2016-2017.
As part of the district’s new strategic plan, SPS has clear goals to dramatically increase student achievement, to ensure student academic growth, and to add a number of new choice options to our school district offerings.
We are looking for proven, research-based models that will offer rigorous curriculum, strong relationships, and innovative approaches to education. Our expectation is that applicants will propose school models that will help us meet our T-2-4 goal of preparing our diverse student body for post-secondary success and beyond.
