The study will assess whether students in all municipalities and school districts have reasonable access to these vocational programs. If the department determines that access is inadequate, it must consult with the Massachusetts School Building Authority and submit a report to the state legislature detailing the areas with insufficient access and an estimate of the cost to establish new vocational programs to meet the unmet demand.
