[quote=Anonymous]I am not a parent at RCF, rather I am a parent in one of the other BCC cluster schools that have been involved in recent decisions about possible formation of a new middle school.  One of the things that disturbs me about this process is that, presumably, a new middle school would involve re-districting RCF students to the new middle school and not Westland, and yet many decisions seem to be under discussion without the input of RCF parents.

Has RCF sent representatives to the community roundtable discussions that have been going on over the past year?

Has the RCF community developed a position on the new middle school?  If so, what is it?

Do RCF Spanish Immersion parents know that Weast and the BoE seem to be proposing that the continuation of the Spanish Immersion program at Westland should be moved to Silver Spring International Middle School where there is already a SP immersion program as part of the effort to relieve capacity pressures on Westland?

(See http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/planning/pdf/BOE_MemoResponsesFor11042010WorkSession.pdf for Weast's answer to Q's raised on the SP immersion issue when he and the BoE discussed it at a recent meeting).

I am not a RCF parent, but I am a cluster parent who believes that all affected cluster schools should be at the decision-making table.  I am particularly concerned since RCF has a higher proportion of FARMS and minority students, whose views are often under-represented in decision-making processes.
