Dates, Times and Places: In the past, we may have been restricted to specific semesters (Spring/Summer), times of day (7-9PM), and days of the week (Mon-Thu). Although we may ultimately consolidate our classes in this way due to resource considerations, at this time, we would like to hear your hopes for the ideal location within the CCUSD premises, your preferred day(s) of the week (including Saturdays), and potential time(s) of day, given that K-12 schools generally occupy our space between 8am-3pm.

How long will your course last? We consider a standard D.I.R.E.C.T. class to be two hours in length, and to be planned as a 5-week session. In the space provided, please tell us if two hours for five weeks sounds good, or if you have other ideas. Please explain and support other thoughts you may have on course duration.

Please include a short\ (100-200 words), prose, bio, and photograph (we may or may not use the photograph; please tell us if you have a preference either way.
