The ARL will also be hosting an Information Night on December 11th from 7-9 pm at the Applications & Research Lab (ARL) located at 10920 Route 108 Ellicott City, MD 21042. The PLTW Aerospace Engineering Academy has changed the program for next year. The program has changed from 10-12th enrollment to 11-12th enrollment for the 2019-2020 school year. As a result, current 10th graders will be able to apply for junior and senior year program enrollment. As the program change was updated after the ARL Shadow Information was released current 9th graders are permitted to attend the November Shadow Day only.  For students who are not able to attend the November Shadow Days, the next and final ARL Shadow Days will take place in January 2019.
