Question to the board on their current opinion...

Kevin - happy to keep growing
Patricia - Happy with direction
Adam - happy, would like to see a replicable curriculum for incoming staff
Brandi - very happy with slow thoughtful growth pattern as opposed to rush to build without foundation.

Question to Board, what is our strength to scale

Kevin - attention to detail, operating patterns, staff, and scholar focus. ECP is in a state that has plenty of education growth possibilities.
Brandi - leadership talent.

Question to the board, what are some missing pieces for scaling

Patricia - how much do we want to repliate? Enrollment model, start with lower grade and increase each year or start with full class levels.
Becky - experts in area of focus are growing in the current location, any scale will require same consideration of personnel.
Kevin - location consideration for large scale vs small scale.  Will remote school be a concept across platforms.
Adam - staff training for effective, consistent communication, and training across multiple campuses. 

Request from Kevin and Patrica to move forward with preschool advancements.
