Now it’s opening day. Welcome your new parents and students and begin your traditions. Start off with a something memorable, bringing in dignitaries, or having a family BBQ. Start to set up memberships in national, provincial, and state private school associations. Once your school is up and running, you’ll face NEW challenges every day. You’ll discover gaps in your strategic plan and your operations and the systems (e.g., admissions, marketing, finance, human resources, educational, student, parent). Every new school will not have everything right…but you need to keep an eye on where you’re now and where you want to be, and continue to evolve your plan and your
to do list. If you’re the founder or the CEO, don’t fall into the trap of doing it all yourself. Make sure you’ve put together a solid team that you can delegate to, so you can keep an eye on the ‘big picture.’
