During the LSC meeting on April 12, committee member Rick Starbard posed an interesting question. He wanted to know if LVTI could take students from outside cities, say Nahant. He was quickly shot down because LVTI is not a regional votech facility.
Okay, but why? I don't know all the laws, rules, and policies preventing this from happening. It just seems to me that we have this GREAT facility that is being underutilized. I think we need to change the focus of our line o questioning from "Why we can't" to "How we can".
Fill out the paperwork and call some people. The time is ripe for innovation in education.
Why not join a regional tech school and send Lynn kids there? Surely it is a lot cheaper and will save a lot of money. I keep hearing enrollment is down at the LVTI. It is an expensive program to operate and could have more librarians with the money.
ReplyDeleteThat is also an option. My only argument is that it just can't stay the way it is. It's just not economically feasible.
