[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is a very tricky distinction.  I live in bounds for Park View/Bruce Monroe elem and I would say its "immersion" only by default. I think over 60% of the students are ESL. Test scores are horrible, not a single white student attends either.   I can count about 12 children within two blocks of me and not one would even consider that school for kindergarten.  but would love to get into Oyster...[/quote]

Again, you got it wrong.  There are at least 2 whites in my kids 16-student class in PS3.  And I only do drop-off once a week, really early, so not sure if there are more.

Bruce Monroe definitely not perfect, but the kids are now speaking both English and Spanish, after only 3 months in.  Their second language is not perfect, but it's getting better with each passing week.

PS/PK instruction is done in English one day and Spanish the next.  Spanish teachers are all native speakers.  You hear Spanish in the hallways and is a welcoming environment.[/quote]
