[quote=Anonymous]The NEC one just ended. I didn't take a screenshot, but they definitely skipped questions. They also gave generic answers to some questions. For example, they said this program was needed to increase opportunities for participation because students were left out due to limited slots in prior programs. They mentioned about 2000 students not being able to participate currently. The questions asked were how many more slots would this program open and would there be set asides for local students if they wanted to apply to the program in their home school? They could not say how many slots this model opens to students. Their answer was that now all high schools will have a program, but did not address still having students unable to participate. They acknowledged that there are current programs with local set asides, but they are not currently a part of this plan. They did not answer if local students in the home school will have home program priority or a set aside. I can see how they wouldn't because they are supposed to give everyone a chance.

The DCC meeting is supposed to be tomorrow. They may have better answers then. They do not have all the programs in place, but believe they will be ready in time. Sherwood will have an engineering and language focus. Blake will have a performing arts and education focus. Paint Branch will be leadership and health careers. Springbrook will be IB and something else I forgot.[/quote]
