Note the following article one year ago on Strugglingteens.com. Hyde has already followed through and opened up the Oakland Ca. School. Also note they are working with the Walton and Gates Foundation. Would be good for both of these Foundations to be better informed!!!
MORE HYDE LEADERSHIP SCHOOLS
(May 10, 2004) Joe Gauld, Founder of Hyde School,
http://www.hyde.edu, a leader in family-based character education, announced plans to establish five more Hyde Leadership Schools, which includes two charter school applications in New York City and Oakland, CA. They hope to open these two schools in September, 2005. Hyde is working with both the Walton and Gates Foundations. These foundations are committed ?to transform American education through the charter school movement.? They are working on developing Hyde charter schools in other regions, hoping to open in 2006 and beyond. The coordinator of this effort is Julie Greenlaw at
jgreenlaw@hyde.edu, 207-443-7386. The two schools they hope to open in 2005 are modeled after the Hyde charter school in Washington D.C.
