[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious why APS would try to make Arlington Tech into a Blair/TJ type of school with a rigorous STEM focus with high performing kids?[/quote] Because Arlington Tech has always basically been a remedial "alternative" school that emphasizes training in the trades (i.e. auto repair, electrical, plumbing), not some elite college-prep institution.[/quote] Incorrect. The Career Center still exists and still provides that function. Arlington Tech is new and has a rigorous, college prep curriculum. [/quote]
