[quote=Anonymous]There are other programs in the county - French and Chinese. He only seems interested in Spanish, which is fine, I suppose.

We are at CGES, home to the Chinese Immersion program. (I'm excluding the one in Potomac because it has preference for  neighborhood children.) There are Hispanic kids in it, black, and Asian. (Asian is a minority, right?) Also white kids. And multi-racial.

I know kids who applied to EVERY program in the county and didn't get their number drawn.

This year, my son's Spanish 1A class was actually broken up and re-formed during the 1st marking period. They combined 2 different 1A classes taught during the same period and made 1 into a truly 1A class and the other into "Spanish for Spanish speakers."

I honestly don't think many Hispanic families are interested in going to a Spanish immersion program for the language benefit. Maybe to get to a different school. I think Jawando wanted a different school. I don't know anything about his assigned ES (and the MCPS web site is down, so I can't get to At a Glance, but it's Great Schools rating is 4/10).
