Sejong Academy- Minneapolis

My friend posted an interesting article he found from the "Twin Cities Daily Planet" today about a new Korean charter school opening up in Minneapolis. It sounds like they are still in the planning phase, but far enough in to host a fundraiser. The academy is slated to open in 2012.

The school would most likely attract Koreans or Korean adoptees because Minnesota is the biggest adopter in the United states, and second in the world or Korean adoptions. I never knew that before reading the article.

The school is going to open as a kindergarten- grade 4 school in 2012, and add a grade every year until they become K-8. There is a large number of families interested, but they still need to have a few more to get the final "go."

Since I tentatively plan on being back in the WI/MN/Twin Cities area in 2012, wouldn't that just be perfect for a job and/or volunteering?!
