I don't think so.
You and your family are always remembered in my prayers my friend.

I know that 3 Seniors at Lowellville attend classes at YSU part time...Is that the same program?

With YSU overseeing it, the BOE can't mess things up like they have the rest of the system.

Thanks.  I just found their website and read through it.

Interesting.

It's located in Fador Hall on the campus of YSU but is part of the city school system. It's for high school students planning on going to college. The courses there are geared to college and the students are required to maintain a high grade average or they will be transfered back to either East or Chaney. Some of the subjects are college level.

What is Early College?  I don't recall hearing about this?
