[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What sucks about delaying it at Woodward is that means Northwood (who will use it as a holding school for 3 years) won't have an auditorium and they have a magnet performing arts program. I feel bad for those students.[/quote]

An academy, not a magnet[/quote]

An academy that draws from the entire DCC, even though not criteria-based, so a magnet.  The DCC is quite a large portion of the county population.[/quote]

OK. I live in the Northwood cluster, and it's always been referred to by the school as an academy, so it seems misleading to relabel it.

+1 Moreover, AEHS (also in the DCC) also has a performing arts academy and arguably a stronger performing arts program. A magnet would be something like Duke Ellington in the district, which is what Woodward was initially meant to be. The model was an audition/portfolio-based criteria-based program. I don't know what happened to that idea. [/quote]
