Early Childhood Sites:
Schools interested in becoming S.M.A.R.T. sites, recognized as Designated Learning Sites, agree to:
- Assemble a core group of 4 – 5 staff members responsible for program implementation
- Have their principal participate with staff in either the full workshop or attend an overview
- Pay a portion of staff training costs
- Administer required pre and post-testing
- Incorporate the required 80 hours of program implementation
The MLRC underwrites the other portion of training and also provides follow-up mentoring, at no cost to the DLS, via the state and federal funding.
The relationship between MLRC and DLS is formalized through a signed Agreement of Expectations form.
Apply to become a DLS
Schools wishing to become a DLS must go through an application process and may contact the MLRC at mlrc@actg.org or 612-706-5549 to request an application. MLRC professionals also welcome individuals or groups interested in visiting A Chance to Grow/New Visions School to learn more about the programs. It can be very helpful for an interested school to visit a nearby S.M.A.R.T. school, many of which are willing to share their experience with interested sites. Such visits can be established by contacting the MLRC office.
