I don't think Kennedy is prepared well enough to handle such a multitude of SLCs. I chose the one I wanted Freshman year and got nothing geared toward what it promised. I don't know what or who is to blame for my disappointment, but I think if an SLC advertises something, it should deliver.

Why doesn't the TBDC have a website???

I think a lot more can be done to help the students. Make the classes more rigorous so they are more prepared.

Why is there Business, Business and Multimedia? There only needs to be one Business.

At my high school we only have one SLC in practice. To have so many in practice makes this school geared toward college and what have you. It is a very effective program and will do the students a big favor. Those kids have no clue how lucky they are.
