How are Yellowstone students “recruited”?
In the first year of operation, students were recruited through distributing flyers in the surrounding neighborhoods and by visiting several housing projects in the Third Ward to address gatherings of parents with 3 and 4 year old children. News of the school also spread with the assistance of the City of Refuge Church and Lilly Grove Missionary Baptist Church. Since that first year, the school’s reputation has spread by word of mouth, and there are over 300 children on the waiting list.
