• CTE Advise Program

  Attention Parents,

  Bronx Design and Construction Academy is participating in an exciting project, Career and Technical Education Advising Tools (CTE Advise), which explores the effectiveness of online advising software in expanding students' choice making in career and technical education courses. MDRC, an education policy research organization, are conducting the study, which has been funded by the U.S. Department of Education. In addition to our support for the project, they have received full support from our district. We are administering an important survey as part of this study. The survey will ask questions about your child’s experience in school learning about CTE opportunities available to them. It will take no more than 15-minutes to complete and will not interfere with instructional time. 

  We are working with an outside organization, Eureka Facts, to distribute consent, so they may be contacting you in the next few days. Here’s what you should know: 

  • If you would like for your child to participate, then do not sign the form sent to you.  
  • If you would not like for your child to participate, then sign the form. 
  • We have included a link to an FAQ page where you can read more about the work. We encourage you to review what they send! 

  If you would like more information about this study, you can contact the project liaison for NYC schools, Kianna Medina at Kianna.Medina@mdrc.org. We appreciate your help and hope you will agree to help us learn more about supports for students' career and technical education.  

   

  Thank you.  

  Best,  

  Bronx Design and Construction Academy Leadership and the MDRC Research Team
