most hotbeds in history were ignited by one superstar emerging from nothing into a national icon. Like In the dominican republic and baseball.
Feinburg and Levin started their own charter school KIPP. Their goal was to get all of their students into college. They took the best teachers from around the area, made stricter rules in their school, and made the teachers more available to the students. With hard work, dedication, and a little bit of stealing, (using the best teaching ideas of others and disregarding methods that didn't work) their students became some of the highest scoring students in the nation, and 80% of their kids went on to college. They made a talent hotbed from the ground up.
Primal cues:
you belong to a group
your group is together in a new strange place
if you do well, you'll go to college.
