Worcester School Committee: report of the superintendent on Project Lead the Way

If, like me, you're trying to figure out what it is that is being talked about, maybe start here
It is at Jacob Hiatt Magnet, Worcester Tech (for computer science), and Doherty Memorial (for engineering); the superintendent announces that it will be added to Forest Grove next year, again in engineering, with the idea that it will then be an engineering pathway in the Doherty quadrant.
At least Jacob Hiatt and Doherty have grants to fund some of it, but the district has been funding some of it, most particularly the funding to belong to Project Lead the Way, which is $700 a year for elementary, $1000 a year for high schools. Professional development and supplies then cost additional funding on top of that
