[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]APS presented updated CIP plans for the Career Center tonight:

Tonight's work session is available for viewing here:

The plan is a 1,700 seat building for the new Career Center: 
- 450 middle school Arl Tech seats
- 950 high school Arl Tech seats (I think - this number isn't spelled out, but based on the total of 1,700)
- 300 part-time CTE seats (to accommodate 900 students from other high schools coming to CC for classes in three blocks)

Montessori gets a new building and grows to 775 seats (it's 460 now).  [b]All satellite preschool Montessori classes from around the County will move to the campus, as well as the middle school seats (which are now about 70 Gunston students).

Total students at the Career Center campus at any time will be 2,475.

Costs aren't broken down but total costs are estimated at $185 million.

My first reaction is that it's so many option seats.  I hope families will apply for all these seats.

Does Arl Tech allow students to take the full range of AP classes, languages, etc?

New building or renovated current CC building? Also, I don’t think Tech students do have access, on site, for all AP or Language courses offered at the comprehensive HS, but that’s part of the calculation families make when opting for this school, which has access to other different courses that aren’t offered at the comprehensive schools, I believe.
