ESD
Yes, that is why I called a meeting to discuss the topic, particularly for those with Common Core classes emphasized on the Regents' Examination. Electives have fewer guidelines and milestones.
The issue with students arriving or instructors departing is not one we can control from our end, and one which the women who have run the ESD and the PTYC Education program have been addressing consistently for the past two years. It's really outside the scope of the discussion for two days prior to the start of the semester.
