[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With Northwood getting the "Dance" pathway for 2027-28 and beyond, will this degrade/move teachers away from the dance program at Einstein? I know MCPS keeps saying every school can keep their existing "local" programs, but I'm confused as to what that means. I can't imagine there are a ton of high level dance teachers to go around. [/quote]

No, there is no additional funding attached to these programs—it's really just the designation itself. Einstein is actually adding a lot of improvements to their dance program. The issue is that Einstein has a stronger arts program than Northwood, and many students want access to those opportunities even if Einstein is not their home school.

Since the regional programs have not been finalized yet, we'll have to wait and see which schools receive which programs.[/quote]

The regional programs absolutely are established and have been formally announced. MCPS is holding information sessions on them this month, which have already started. https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/curriculum/regional-programs-and-themes/[/quote]

[b]Program locations are subject to change based on factors such as school enrollment, facilities, etc.[/b]

That's "if we decide we want to make tweaks later, you're not allowed to complain because there's a disclaimer at the bottom" language.   It doesn't mean that things are still TBD.  They're definitely not.  [/quote]
