In establishing a' new kind of educational institution which is heavily dependent on public funding, it is incumbent to describe the goals and the means as clearly as possible. We do this here in several steps: We define the general objectives, the specifications and finally, the general philosophy.

SPRINGFIELD, 111., October 16—Governor James R. Thompson appointed eight persons Wednesday to the Board of Trustees of the newly created Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy.
"Illinois is a State blessed with creative and gifted students whose talents are the bright hope of our future. But if these students are to grow to their full potential, their talents must be nurtured and refined, their minds must be challenged to reach out and examine the unknown. This is the object and goal of the Illinois Math and Science Academy. The Academy was a promise made in this Administration's Better Schools Program—a promise …

IMSA History
There is a widely recognized perception that the nation facing a crisis in fulfilling its needs for citizens trained in the fields of science, mathematics and technology. In particular, the State of Illinois has an obligation toward this national issue and to .its own need to develop these human resources that are so intimately coupled to economic leadership in a post-industrial society. This is a very broad challenge; here we propose to address only one important aspect: the nurturing of creative excellence in students of science and mathematics. We are concerned with the extraordinarily gifted person--the upper few tenths of …

The objectives of the Academy would be to accept gifted high school juniors and, in three years, provide students completely prepared to enter college as juniors.
It is proposed that the school be very strong in math-science, but it does not take too much thought to realize that it must be almost as strong in English, Social Studies and the Humanities. As a pilot project, an entrance class of 300 students per year with an average population of 800 students may represent a reasonable scale. Some of the virtues of this Academy, as contrasted with a Science High School, are …
