[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can’t just “decide” to send your child there. There’s a lottery, and you have to get a spot. [/quote]

If you live in the neighborhood, there is no lottery. Lottery is for people zoned to other schools. [/quote]

Not according to the FCPS website. The lottery is countywide meaning everyone has to register for the lottery regardless of where you live:

There is a county wide placement but many of the language immersion schools have 2 lotteries. The first is for kids attending the base school. If there are enough kids to fill the program from the base, that lottery picks first. If there are spaces after the base school kids have opted in, then there is a county wide lottery. Parents at the base school have to apply for the program but are most likely to be accepted into the program.

All the language immersion programs are opt in programs. [/quote]
