Case Study: Chattahoochee Hills Charter School Petition
Residents in Chattahoochee Hills formed a grassroots effort to create a new
charter school and began the process of responding to the county and state
petitions as the first step in the approval process.
Write Place Designs designed the petitions, compiled and edited responses from committee members, and produced two petition proposals and supporting documentation totaling more than 1,000 pages. The state awarded the charter school petition on December 16, 2010. Read the Petition (2.5MB).
We develop traditional (static) websites including the set up of domains and hosting, design of the content structure, customization of a template of your choice, development of content, addition of optional components such as calendars and email groups; and search engine optimization. For ongoing maintenance, you may either contract with us or another provider, or you may purchase Microsoft Expression Web and maintain your website yourself.
