[quote=Anonymous]sure. But there are plenty of people who don't live in Petworth and/or don't work downtown, or people who are willing to trek a long distance for immersion. look at how far people are willing to travel for various charters, most of which don't offer Spanish: http://www.dcpcsb.org/sites/default/files/Binder3.pdf Parents who get their kids from the Hill to Bridges or Two Rivers Young or the DCI feeders each day wouldn't face any worse traffic than if they went to Houston (and it would probably be easier by metro than most of those schools). It may not be many people's first choice, but if the option is $15,000 for another year of day care because you didn't get any of your lottery picks vs. a small immersion class that requires a bit more of a commute, Houston is going to look pretty good to some families.[/quote]
