Goal 1: Recruit 80 students for each class
- Task 1.1: Recruit 80 students for Class of 2023 (10/1/19) Discussing tonight Next steps: Develop and delegate tasks - Task 1.2: Recruit 80 students for Class of 2024 (6/30/20) Discussing in the future We currently have 52 students and counting with a budget that is modeled at 50. While we'd like to get 80, we're realizing some constraints we're experiencing in the space along with a reluctance to add too many kids mid-semester, so we'll likely cap our Class of 2023 recruitment at school 60. |
