Dear Mr. Brock,
My family and I recently designed and made application for a K12 Charter School in Wasilla, Alaska. It has been approved by both our local school board and the State of Alaska to open for the 2005-2006 School Year. We will use Problem Based Learning in our model. I am writing an Implementaion Grant for this new school and am interested in including a project using digital images in the refinement of curriculum for our new school. If you or anyone else on this list is interested in Problem Based Learning in the K12 Environment and would like to be involved in curriculum refinement or research on our school and its assesment, I am seeking out projects to include in this grant.
Please see our preliminary website at www.freewebs.com/twindlybridgecharterschool/
Feel free to reply with questions
Best Regards,
Anna Roys, Academic Policy Committee Board Member, Twindly Bridge Charter School, Matanuska Sssitna Borough School District, P.O. Box 5211012, Big Lake, AK 99652 (907) 892-1899
