[quote=Anonymous]This is true. I’ve been an immersion parent for 6 years now with two kids. Looking at the bus schedule for some of these neighborhoods is staggering - there were spending 3+ hours a day on the bus. There is no way we would do this - we turned down a slot at CMIT due to the commute. Also, people are not honest about their kids. I know it’s hard, but if your kid isn’t speaking or reading the target language by 2nd grade, it’s time to pull. If they need reading help, it’s probably best for them to go elsewhere. If you think there is too much homework (we are not at Chavez), it’s not the school for you. And that’s fine. I didn’t entertain TAG because I knew homework would be a daily struggle. He’s JUST now hitting his homework stride in 4th grade. I know a few people who were “forced” into their (Bowie) neighborhood schools and surprise! They love the schools and their kids are thriving.[/quote]
