Hi, my daughter Archanti P is an 8th grader and she didn't get selected for the selective enrollment part of Westinghouse high school but her 8th grade administer said there's a non-selective enrollment part that my daughter can go too. How can we get the applications or and what is the process for the "Westinghouse Career Academy".
