The FCPS has already shared details about its advanced academic programs with parents and students in a showcase. The showcase gave the community the chance to check out more than 40 different local organizations and programs that will help the students advance academically and creatively. Brochure printing could be used to share details about educational programs.
Vee Pryor, FCPS’s Innovate Office Magnet and Specialized Academic Program Manager, went on to say:
“Students are allowed an opportunity to be in the atmosphere where they can see and get hands-on with someone if the things they are going to be doing in our program schools. It gets them excited about some of the opportunities and options that we have available.”
Families were able to check out wide variety of subjects, including math, art, and linguistics. They also took a look at STEM-related courses being offered at institutions such as the George Washington Carver School for Boys. Another STEM-related group that will be offering courses is the non-profit youth engineer group Newton’s Attic, which is known for producing a popular device known as the Spinatron.
The programs are open to families located anywhere in Fayette County, including Lexington. The window to apply for these programs closes on Sunday, January 22.
