    5. Director's Comments and Items of Information
    Dr. Kovach, Director

    Met with Dr. Jenner, secretary of education, last week as well as Representative Behning concerning various CTE related topics and this year's state budget proposal.  Also, met with Representative Davis a couple of weeks ago.

    One issue I am getting clarification on is amount of seat time for a CTE program.  As we investigate options to increase enrollment, we are considering shortening the duration of each session but adding an additional session during our day.  I want to pursue this only if we can continue to get full funding for our programs.  April 16th, I am meeting with the C9 framework group to continue this conversation with our school leadership.
