How do you plan to find and reach out to new potential chapters? In addition do you have any ideas for how to reach out to schools that do not take the National Latin Exam?
In 2018, 544 California students took the AP Latin exam; therefore, I want to reach out to the College Board for a list of schools offering the test. I also want to check the attendance from Crossroads and Stanford’s certamen competitions to see if there are any prospective schools in those lists as well. Finally, I want to contact the various Latin textbooks, such as the Cambridge textbooks, that are used throughout California and see what schools they supply or what schools have asked for textbook information.
To recruit, I want to send an introduction email with a video of students, teachers, and SCL members explaining how JCL has changed their lives. I would provide statistics from a survey I would conduct showing the number of JCL seniors planning on studying classics in college and SCL members going into classics professions. I also want to personalize the recruitment process by meeting Northern California schools in person to discuss the logistics of joining and answer any questions. For southern schools, I will reach out to southern board members and ask if anyone would be interested in doing the same. I would also be happy to connect with schools over Zoom that may be out of our reach.
