[quote=Anonymous]With regards to the aerospace pathways - they are trying to be inclusive since it is not a pure magnet school. The range of outcomes included - building hands on aircraft engines (this is excellent training for a mechanical or future aerospace engineer), getting air traffic controller training (these are tough jobs but generally pay $150-175K, not bad), getting your private pilots license (huge deal for those going to flight school), airport mgmt. experience (these are good paying white collar jobs with Dulles next door) and getting at least two years of engineering and stem design classes. Is it college? No, it's it a leap forward in the right direction, absolutely. They are trying to give coursework that perhaps require higher level math vs. that which does not. It's inclusive in my view since it does not exclude those that want to take the more challenging route.[/quote]
