[Ed Note: Right, but we need to find out specifically what kids are losing what resources. For instance: if you are moving programs that are heavy into Mock Trial, I'd be interested in how the District is going to handle it. Are they going to provide access to the program or just say "too bad?" We don't know the answer to this yet.]
