Hosts Megan (Smallwood) and Patrick (Cadigan) traverse the ladder; they drill down and do an overview of work programs offered by their school system for both non-diploma and diploma-bound students, the criteria including some of the expectations these programs have for their participants; this is by no means intended to be comprehensive, simply just a conversation around some of the programs that one school system offers; of course there will be differences between states/counties.
