Itas planned as a high school with flexible courses and hours, blending technology into every facet of learning.
Such a program, unique in Maryland, is envisioned for Frederick High School. But Frederick County Public Schools is still waiting to see if it will receive a $10 million grant to fund the Linking Youth to New Experiences School, which would be housed at Frederick High.
Students who would attend Frederick High School could take advantage of LYNX, though they could also maintain a traditional high school schedule if they wished, school district spokesman Michael Doerrer said.
On Tuesday, Gov. What will happen if the district doesnat secure the grant is unclear, though Doerrer said Frederick County Public Schools Superintendent Terry Alban and Nancy Grasmick, a former Maryland state superintendent of schools, are committed to moving forward with the project regardless of the outcome of the grant competition.
The team focused on developing LYNX has been working to develop alternatives in case the districtas bid for the grant fails, including working closely with the business community, Doerrer said a not just in Frederick County, but around the state.
The next round of the grant application is due this month.
