Broward County Public Schools is holding an Open House and Live Web Chat during the month of January 2012.  

This is a wonderful opportunity for parents and students in your community to go on campus of a magnet school and gain an upclose, personal overview of all that magnet programs have to offer. Invitations have already been mailed out throughout the county to homes of parents and to our public schools. Please partner with us and communicate these exciting events to members of the DAC. Attached you will find a JPG of Open House 2012 for you to share electronically. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
