GAK Assumptions • Schools will only have funding for 4 years • GAK will need to sustain with no funding (or very limited funding) • Educators will not have time during the school day to develop GAK • Funds will be needed to pay educators for the time they spend outside of contract hours to develop the GAK initiative (during the four years when funding is available). • GAK initiatives will be highly sustainable because they are not funding-dependent
