Rules for School Start Ups

Launching a school? Follow these rules from New Tech High's principal:

WHAT WORKS
>>Plan well and follow best practices.

>>Start small and stay focused on your core competencies.

>>Maximize your available resources.

>>Leverage alliances with other organizations.

>>Always check in with students.

>>Recruit creative, entrepreneurial, and passionate teachers.

WHAT DOESN'T
>>Wall-to-wall computers: The original classroom design left no room for direct instruction. This was remedied by opening up presentation areas in each room.

>> Horizontal management: The original plan didn't include a principal, but teachers found that having to make all decisions as a group took too much time.
