CMS will offer new programs of study and expand access to World Language and other magnet programs for the 2016-2017 school year. The new programs prepare students for college and career success by linking high school instruction and postsecondary curriculums with employer-based training. The plan also expands the CMS transportation model to provide a shuttle stop option (an assigned bus stop at a specified CMS school site) or a common neighborhood stop option for magnet students at the 17 schools currently served by shuttle stops. In addition, the opening of an Institute of Technology at Harding University and the Service and Protection Academy at the Military and Global Leadership Academy at Marie G. Davis reflects our goal of increasing choice and customizing learning for all students. We will continue to expand in coming years so that we meet the needs of every child. Magnet schools offer an opportunity for us to engage students who have a particular interest or academic strength. I want to personally thank you for choosing Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools for your child. Sincerely, Ann Clark Superintendent, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools
