[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never went to any of those meetings.  Class selection did not seem that complicated.[/quote]

Unfortunately MCPS makes it complicated.  If your kid wants to take 3 years of a language in MS, there can be issues.  [/quote]

I am surprised they don’t offer french 3ab and Spanish 3ab is new this year , older DC ‘s school offer other, I thought it is standard..[/quote]

More kids interested in Spanish, I guess?  Or easier to find staff.  [/quote]

Are this years 8th graders the first year allowed to take 1a/1b in 6th grade?  Is French 1a/1b offered in 6th now too?  Do those kids have to go to RM for 3a/b  [/quote]

Yes, kids would have to go to RM for French 3[/quote]

In 8th grade, they leave? I am confused [/quote]
Yes - the current 8th grader’s could only choose 1a as 6th grader’s and they then took 1b as 7th grader’s. If they were more advanced (coming from French immersion, some the language at home), they could place into a higher level but that means they would need to go to the high school to accomodate the 3rd level.

I know a few 8th graders who go to RM first period (the high school first period. Not middle school first period) and just come back to jw after first period.[/quote]
