South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting -March 6, 2009 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br />D. Airport Economic Development Area <br />(1) Discussion of New Tech High School. <br />cost to startup because the New Tech <br />Foundation charges for the training they do <br />for the teachers and for working with local <br />staff on the curriculum. The school <br />corporation hasn't raised money yet. They <br />need to secure this commitment for a <br />building before they can start making <br />presentations for other public support. If <br />they can't get it going for August 2009, <br />they'll work toward August 2010. It"s a fine <br />project for students and the community. <br />Mr. Kapsa noted that one reason for wanting <br />to begin this year is that one individual has <br />pledged $450,000 toward the project if it <br />starts this year. Another individual has <br />pledged $150,000 toward the project. Those <br />commitments are being used for matches as <br />they apply for a grant from the Lilly <br />Foundation. <br />Mr. Alford expressed his enthusiasm for the <br />project. He asked what criteria would be <br />used to select the 100 students for this year. <br />Mr. Kapsa responded that it is not a gifted <br />and talented program. They will take <br />applications from anyone in the community, <br />but will be looking for students who can <br />work independently. New Tech High School <br />will not have all the programs that are <br />available at the other high schools, so there <br />will be some trade-offs for those who attend <br />there. <br />Ms. Jones asked if the criteria would be <br />similar to that for LaSalle Academy. Dr. <br />22 <br />
