Greetings,
It is TIME to OPEN GREAT SCHOOLS IN MINNEAPOLIS!
Make a difference in the lives of Minneapolis children! The
Minneapolis Public Schools invites educators, leaders, schools,
school networks and school management organizations with track
records of delivering high levels of academic and operational
performance to open high-achieving, gap-closing, and college
preparatory self-governed, charter or contract schools serving
economically under-resourced Minneapolis children. Minneapolis
Public Schools (MPS) is a diverse urban school district with
33,000 students. MPS is deeply committed to ensuring that every
child is college ready.
In return for high student performance results, MPS-approved
self-governed, charter, and contract schools can expect to
receive start-up and ongoing funding, attractive MPS-provided
facilities, performance-based oversight, and an MPS commitment
to build a partnership in support of all Minneapolis
children.
Please join us to learn more about this exciting new
opportunity.

Thursday, October 8, 2009, from 6:30-8:00
