Before the building, the readiness.
Most founding schools incubate in temporary space for two to five years before they're ready for a permanent facility. Knowing where you stand — and what you're underweighting — is how you avoid reactive, emotionally-driven decisions.
This scorecard evaluates your readiness through the four Leadership Lenses that anchor the Leading the Build framework:
CEO · Mission & Leadership
CFO · Financial Sustainability
CAO · Design & Academics
COO · Risk & Reality
