Md. district expands
career and technical education
Prince George's County
Public Schools in Maryland plans to add 10 career and technical education
programs to the district's offerings this fall. Students already have access to
a growing number of CTE programs, with the district launching 36 such programs during
the past three years. "It forms a community for the students, which is an
additional level of support for the students to be successful," Lateefah
Durant, district academic officer, said, noting that students in the academy
programs often have fewer absences and fewer disciplinary issues. The Washington Post (tiered subscription model) (4/20)
