How To Start A School (Private/Charters/Religious) pt. 1 | TEACHERpreneur

  • Опубликовано: 17 фев 2020
  • 6 years ago, as a special education teacher, I started my own school. Now I am sharing what I know to help other courageous teachers do the same. In how to a school part I, I answer the following questions:
    1. How long did it take and what was the initial cost?
    2. What legal things did you have to do?
    3. What is required to own/open an accredited school?
    4. How did you find your pupils?
    In this series, I share a little about my journey of starting a school and why it is important. So many teachers in general and special education teachers particularly are burnt out but love teaching. Our kids are not always treated fairly nor are most of them learning to their potential. I no longer wanted to be a part of a system that fails so many.
    Make sure you watch all the videos in this series: shorturl.at/gxzPU
    1st How I started my own school (Great Inspiration)
    2nd Difference between a private/charter/religious school
    3rd Accreditation
    4th Finding a building
    5th Funding Options
    P.S. I do keep a log of video ideas and suggestions, so more videos down the pipe. Thank you so much the support, feedback, recommendations, comments, and encouragement!

    Um, the process is just like home childcare when applying to DCF. Who did you apply to for the school?

    • @CindyTheLDCoach
      @CindyTheLDCoach  4 года назад +10

      For accreditation?...Georgia Accrediting Association. It’s a process, but it’s doable. Especially in FL, I feel they are friendly like Ga with laws that give state funds. I’ll be taking more about that soon.

    • @Glam6

      Cindy Lumpkin not for the accreditation but to open a school. Who/where did you have to apply to open the school?

    • @CindyTheLDCoach
      @CindyTheLDCoach  4 года назад +21

      Brithney Gardiner Literally, it’s a business. You don’t have to ask anyone if you can have a school. It’s your decision to start one. Once you register with the state your business, which is a school then you have yourself a school. Some states may have zoning issues you would have to adhere to. Now you don’t want to stop there. You have to apply to an accrediting body to get accredited. Now they are the ones who have ALL the requirements that need to be done and in order to get state funds you have to be accredited, at least in Georgia. Anyone at any time can open a school. Now the issue is the accrediting and or meeting whatever the requirements are to get state funding if your state gives special-needs scholarships. Hope that makes since. At the end of all this, I might do a live for questions l’ve left unclear.

And give the students a nice experience. Not terrible super processed foods, Or control freek teachers. But fun field trips, And useful information. I'm really happy there's another person my age thinking of this. 🥳

    God spoke a certain word to me in an audible voice years ago. I did not understand what to do with it. It’s been many many years and I almost gave up. A few days ago, I revisited my experience and God has lead my mind and heart in this direction. After carefully thinking and searching my heart, I thought within myself… “A Private School!”

I failed one portion and graduated with a certificate of attendance and a Special Education diploma. Later, I went to Job Corps, where I obtained my high school diploma. Currently, I am pursuing my bachelors degree at Clark Atlanta University, with hopes of continuing on to a Masters Program and ultimately starting a school of my own.

      Hello SalafisPrime!! It has taken me bit of a while, but I finally gotten part 2 up. Teachers are not required to have a bachelors; however, unless they teach something like an elective...music, wood shop, auto mechanics I most likely wouldn't hire them as a teacher, I would make them a co-teacher, someone working under the leadership of a teacher who is certified or has a great deal of experience. This is only the case because of who our clients are too. Our parents want to know that the teachers have to skills needed to teach our population. Thanks for your comment!!

      How awesome is that!! I pray that she gets all the resources she needs. I don’t want to make it sound like you don’t need anything, but for me, everything for the most part that was a huge expense was donated or reduced. I also started with older kids which helped a lot.

    That is incredible, WOW $75. Codee aka CoCo has that much right now :) Not that she is in any position to become a teacher right now, She is just 14, but being a special ed teacher is on her list of things she might want to do when she grows up. And to think She could have her own school someday. Thanks for sharing it is good to know there are so many possibilities. It is so true that not all kids learn the same. I feel like Codee really struggles with concentration, and staying focused. we were told in 6th grade she had ADD, and they gave us medication, but after praying hard about it we just kept getting the same NO, do not medicate her. I believe it was the right choice, however she struggles with focusing, and completing assignment, and then remembering to turn them in. I think this will actually help her as she gets older, if she does choose to open a school, or even just be in a career working with kids, because she will be more understanding of those situations, and that not all kids learn the same. Thanks So much for sharing.

      Much respect with your decision not to give meds. I don’t judge either way, but it would be a hard decision for us to make too. I don’t even give my kids shoots in a regular schedule.

    Praying for you to continue the Lords work and steward these children well.
    My wife and I have a Autistic child and the public school system in our area just does not have the tools/teachers capable of caring for him. Therefore, we are praying to see if this is a path for our family and it’s coming from the Lord.
    Please pray for us, we are waiting for the Lord to confirm what he put on our hearts.
    Thank you and may the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and your students.

If He says that starting your own school is the way or even to explore it, you can join our FB group called teachers interested in starting their own school. I should say parents or anyone because the process will be the same for everyone. Anyway I answer a lot of questions and we motivate/inspire each other in there.

I would say def build a team of like minded people. This is something you can’t do alone. Also, start researching the requirements so you will know what is ahead of you. Good luck!!

    Thanks for your video! I’m happy I found a woman of color who is currently on this journey. It makes no sense, but I’m exploring what it would look like to start a school. I’ve yet to find a school that fits my philosophy and values when it comes to education for my kids. My plan has been to homeschool, but honestly I don’t know if that’s what I want to do or if that’s what I feel obligated to do so that my children have the learning environment my husband and I desire for them. I know there are like-minded parents here in Ferguson, MO. I’m just very multi-passionate and am trying to discern if this fits with the rest of my purpose and is actually something God is calling me to do. I look forward to watching future videos whether or not I choose this path.

    • @CindyTheLDCoach
      @CindyTheLDCoach  4 года назад +1

      Hello Krystal, sorry it has taken me so long. However, we are def similar. I thought about homeschooling as well. I actually quite my job when I had my 1st child. However, once she turned about 3, I knew homeschooling wasn't for me. I didn't want to go back to public schools because of how much of myself I had to give with NO flexibility. So, I participated in some homeschool co-ops for a while and then I found a school that I felt met our needs. Which gave me more time to work on my school. I has been/is still a lot of work, but I love the flexibility that I still have. If my kids school is out, I just bring them to work. If I need to leave and go on a field trip my teacher covers for me. I give her the same flexibility with her child. With a small environment it works out. Continue to be prayerful and know there is no guilty of shame in what you decided. Follow God's leading. Also, if you wanted to continue with the series, I finally did the next one. This who convid thing through me off a little. LOL! Thanks again for your comment.

    WHOA... Do you know how many aspiring teachers who want to open up their own school, just heard the words you have to have a person to headed up that has a MASTER"S DEGREE... Is this for only Non-profit... or ANY Teacher opening up a School?
    Am I right by saying ...
    We have to have a Master's Degree... or just someone on our Board (Non-Profit)
    This is NOT as easy as I though you started out saying... This is scary.
    Please help me understand.
    Thank you so much for such a great tutorial... even if I don't get to open up my school now. (SAD)

    • @CindyTheLDCoach
      @CindyTheLDCoach  2 года назад +1

      Hi Judi! Remember everything depends on your state. Compared to what most people think of starting a school takes, it is easy; however, that doesn’t mean hard work is required. The process of starting any business is scary but rewarding. It all depends on how you structure your school. If you don’t want to be accredited then for many states no Masters required. However, if you want to be accredited in my state the school being “run” by someone with a Master to be the principle is required. We have a Facebook community of like minded people who are interested and those who are actively engage in starting school feel free to join us and ask questions in fact I may be doing a zoom or live coming up to answer more specific questions.

    • @CindyTheLDCoach
      @CindyTheLDCoach  2 года назад

      The person over the instructional program generally needs a Masters degree. I put the word generally because things do change from state to state. In addition, if you do not seek accreditation then in most places there is very little requirements. So you could run a school without this if you don’t get accredited. We have a group on Facebook called teachers interested in starting a school you are welcome to join and ask questions as needed and share your journey.
