After a career of nearly forty years in education, Robert Guillaume chose to act upon a personal vision. With nothing more than his twenty-year vision, he set out to create a unique top academic and college-preparatory academy. Facing odds against success that included lack of financial support, he built a corporation and established one of the nation’s largest, finest, and most unique college preparatory public charter schools in less than seven years. This book is a salute to success despite the odds for failure. You will want to share this book with family and friends, and anyone who cares about our nation’s educational system.
