This is a great start to improving our education system in this city.  It may only serve students who are already succeeding in their education, but that is important.  We spent a lot of money on the lowest performing students and special education. I understand why that is done and certainly there is some value in helping those struggling students.  However, this fills a hole in our district that has existed for as long as I can remember.  It isn't about kids getting an associate degree, it's about getting expensive general education requirements taken care of while still in high school.

It is also about students who want to challenge themselves.  A student can now have the option of taking calculus 2, in high school.  That is not a class offered in any of the high schools I have looked into.  That is just one example.  Anyone who thinks ASD is putting out a poor product should see some value in this option.

I know some people will complain no matter what, but I support this program
